Having known the late Guy R.H. Miller as a dear friend for almost a quarter century, he's appeared so many times in various sections of the now-dormant Lamma forums and this 24-years-old Lamma-zine.

He was so much more than just the famous bird photographer, see his former personal website above. It's sadly offline now and I didn't manage to convince Guy back then to save his wide-ranging photo collection to free, long-term storage.

He was also a moderator and top contributor of my pre-social media Lamma forums (Lamma's top 10 birds and Flora & Fauna forum), frequently honoured in the Bird of the Week and other Lamma Spotlights sections. So many of his best photos are safe there (for now).

Aug 11:  R.I.P. Anonymous Guy

Neil Fifer: "I've put together some photos of Guy around Lamma Island. Some of his ponds, his hides and his dogs. I forgot to mention his love of his dogs and he had many over the years.

If you can't see him in some of the photos it could be because he is camouflaged, being 'Anonymous Guy'."

Geoff Smith: "Many will have heard by now of the sad loss of a giant of Lamma bird photography, Guy Miller. Guy's iconic pond next to his hide at Tai Shan West was legendary in its ability to attract species that nobody knew were around, and over many patient hours Guy produced some amazing photos.

I have many happy memories of good times spent together. We at Lamma Birds are extremely saddened by the loss and send sympathy to his family and friends."

So many "Guy the Birdographer" stories and photos in the Lamma-zine over the last 20+ years. RIP, my great friend.

One of my favourite stories, very unusual in not featuring a bird, but himself:

Guy: "I was just about to enter the bird hide & was spotted by this #CrouchingTigerHiddenDragon who came over & chatted health, trails & Lamma birds before he disappeared up into the woods at the start of his cross-Lamma trail run."

Aug 2:  Red Rainstorm!

Sandrine: "When you're full of energy to go to work and you see this!"

District Councilor Liu Shun-ting:

"Special report from the HK Observatory at 11:05 AM regarding the Red Rainstorm Warning Signal:

Lamma Island Yung Shue Wan and Sok Kwu Wan:
Severe flooding in multiple villages and streets."

David Ogg: "It's been a busy morning!"

Aug 1:  World Wide Web Day

Tim Berners-Lee calls for AI to preserve
'original values' of web

"The British physicist-turned-computer scientist conceived the World Wide Web in 1989 while working at CERN, the European particle physics lab in Switzerland

The very first website ever created is still online, and its link is: http://info.cern.ch

This site was hosted on Tim Berners-Lee's NeXT computer at CERN and originally contained documentation explaining what the World Wide Web was, how to create web pages, and how to run a web server. It's preserved exactly as it appeared in the early 1990s."

World Wide Web Day and Swiss National Day today!

Tim Berners-Lee is my personal hero! Without him, I couldn't have made my career in website building & mastering.

I've been working in the IBM Research Lab Zurich, Switzerland, till I moved to HK in the 80s. Great memories there while I was studying Computer Science at Zurich University and ETH at the same time. I learned so much!

Researchers in that IBM lab won the Physics Nobel Prize 2 years in a row while I was working there (not directly involved, just a supporting role in their research).

I've been launching my very first corporate website in the 90s (one of the very first and largest in HK, still online in 12+ languages and attracting many millions of views/month worldwide).

Being headhunted to launch a travel website as MD/CCO, we closed down 9 months later amidst the worlwide collapse of the dotcom bubble in 2,000.
