It's been so many years but I still remember sitting and having long talks with you back up in your Montecito office, listening to all your stories. To this day I still regret not taking that private Palladium Printing and Cyanotype class you were offering. BTW I still have the jobo tank you gave me. Miss you Nick.
I reached out to Mr. Dekker after I graduated from Brooks in October 2009. He took me under his wing for a few weeks to help me learn how to use the RED Book. Out of my 4 years at Brooks he was my favorite instructor. His love for photography inspired me and fueled my passion. He had the best stories and showed what a real photographer was all about. It's been over a decade since his passing and I still feel he's one of the best! Greatly missed and gone WAY too soon. Until we meet again. -Daisy
