Welcome to this week's "Member of the Week" post. Every week I will post the name of a member and a link to their profile. This will be our Member of the Week. Go have a look at their profile page and/or portfolio. Enjoy their photos, leave some comments and most of all post one or two of their photos in this thread so others can see them and enjoy them. If you like you can also write a little blurb saying why you enjoy this member's photos.
This week's Member of the Week is jagar. And here are a couple of his photos.

Far, far too many to post. One of my absolute favourite photogs here at DPC. Someone whom I admire for being able to tell a complete, compelling story with as few brushstrokes as possible.
John, did you take some of your images out from your portfolio? I was looking for a shot taken in GB, a young man walking on the street that is mighty different from the cobblestones in Lot.
Anyway, a wonderful shot that had nothing to do with la douce France.
You are really doing the best documentary on Lot and the unknown south. Stir the waters and publish a book!
He's had a lot of success on this site without ever acting tyrannical or even bigheaded. I admire him very much for that. He has some damn good photos, too.
I remember this photo being in voting like it was yesterday. It struck me, as I was in the challenge and thought I had something decent, but this was beyond decent and, more importantly, pretty damn interesting, clever, and turned the ordinary on its head. I got more involved in DPC around the same time he did and we, as expats from our native lands, lived in similar-looking towns; I thought, maybe, I had a kindred spirit.
Events since have proven he's a much better photographer than I am, and he doesn't answer his phone, return e-mails, or even answer his door, even in the middle of the night. But I still consider us very good friends.
Thank you everybody, I'm humbled by all your kind words, DPC has become a great family and you all inspire me so much.
It feels good to be appreciated on your birthday, cheers.
