I'm afraid I'm here to post sad news, on december 6 Menno Mennes passed away, he was one of the great unknown DOP's and one of the nicest giving guys you could ever hope to meet in the business.

Here is some of his work on holland heritage, it was his idea and he shot and produced the whole series:

This is who he thought he was

Sad to hear the news. Sounds like a guy I would've liked to known & worked with.

A loss to DVXUser to lose someone w/ decades of experience.

Very sad. Thank you for informing us. It is indeed a loss to DVXuser, and certainly to the Netherlands. He seemed passionate about his work on Holland Heritage.
