Of the Top 25 photos on 500px this week, 8 have the same title. Most of those 8 are, in fact, in the Top 10. This is not a mistake.
Each photo is titled FOR JEFF, and was part of a heartwarming and heartbreaking tribute to landscape photographer Jeff Swanson, who passed away one year ago this month from Metastatic Melanoma, but left a legacy of love and friendship that will last for decades to come.
In honor of Jeff and the beauty he shared with the world in his 30 years of life, we dedicate this week’s Top 25 to him. Visit his website Jeff It and Be There where you can purchase his prints to support Malanoma research, or go straight to the Melanoma Research Foundation donation page to pay your own tribute.
