We were saddened last week to learn of the passing of photographer Dan Budnik, whom Nora Trulsson profiled in our September 2014 issue. Budnik captured some of the country’s most incredible moments. We wish his family peace.

Rest in peace Dan Budnik, who died today aged 87. I interviewed him for @guardian about his photograph of Martin Luther King, taken moments after I Have a Dream. Budnik was a poet with a camera, a poet to listen to, and a genuine gentleman. #RIP
