Description
I'd like to dedicate this photo to our dear departed friend Robert Theoret. I know he left us several months ago, but as I was cleaning out my IM's, I came across the last one I had ever received from him and it brought back fond memories. There was a time that I'd couldn't wait to see what 3 new photos he had uploaded for the day. For those who never knew him, he was for the most part a nature photographer. He had a way of finding the beautiful in the ordinary that I truly admired. I did not know him well, but because of his warmth and kindness I counted him a friend.
I took a bit of a hiatus after the birth of my daughter and came back to find that he had passed on. I was very saddened by this news, but knew that he was at peace with his life. Here is the last IM from him, I thought some of you might like to read it.

wow, excellent shot, super detail!!!!
Thats a neat pair of flower my friend and a lovely dedication to a departed friend who was a great soul.... Robert knew he was a walking time bomb and in a way it helped him live life to the fullest in the last few months of his life. In a way......... I consider him lucky........ life is too mysterious when it comes to the end........These brave words come from our dear friend......So this is just a quick good-bye for a week or so, but I warn you I shall be back with more flowers and more songs. In the meantime, enjoy everything around you and have sunshine in your heart at all times, even if there are rainy days. It never rains in heart where a garden grows......Thanks for sharing this.:O)) .
Beautiful absolutely..:)
