Here's my Shadow Shot Sunday #110


Some soft and subtle shadows found at the Gallery of Modern Art

I was so very saddened this week to hear the news about Bobbie passing away last weekend. Bobbie posted her first shadow shot in October 2008 and has been regularly joining in ever since. I've enjoyed getting to know Bobbie and have always found her to be an inspiration, especially with regards to her ongoing support towards human rights issues. Bobbie blogged about injustices throughout the world and passionately advocated for equal rights and fairness for all. Bobbie was a tireless campaigner for peace. May you now rest in peace Bobbie. You will be greatly missed my friend and I hope you are aware of the positive impact you've had on so many lives. I hope you know. Please know the difference you've made.

My deepest sympathies to Bobbie's family. Thanks to Bobbie's daughter Kitty for updating Bobbie's blog.


Bobbie's Shadows
[a selection of some of my faves from Bobbie from the last couple of years]

I'm not going to end this post with the usual 'Happy Sunday' (not that I don't wish you all a happy Sunday, I do of course!) but I'll end with a quote instead. A quote that was introduced to me through Bobbie...

"The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough" - Rabindranath Tagar

What a lovely quote and tribute. It's so very sweet of you to remember Bobbie here. It was very touching to read the last few posts on her blog. It's always sad to see a life pass...but good to know that at long last she has arrived.

Thanks for letting us all know about Bobbie - the friendships that we have aquired from Shadow Shots are precious...Bobbie will be missed here - but she has taught us so much that will stick with us for years to come...

Thanks for your lovely tribute and perfect quote ... I've not had much time at the computer for quite some time so I'm out of the loop on so many happenings. I'm saddened to learn of Bobbie's passing ... she will be missed in the Blogosphere.
Hugs and blessings,

This tribute is perfect. Bobbie had beliefs and was ready to act upon them - do we share the same commitment? The panel of photos are so nice, the shadows mean that there was (and is) a light of life. The sunny look that reminds of a special person...

I also read on the sideway - I think from Sylvia over the Hill of Bobbie's passing. I used to leave comments in her photographic blog a long time ago.

Condolence to her family.

(You are very clever. You have so many great ideas in going about your meme shadow.

Thankyou for putting together such a beautiful tribute Tracy. I hadn’t “met” Bobby but was saddened to hear of the loss of a fellow shadow chaser. From your tribute and the recent posts on her bog, it seems she was a very special lady indeed.
Your shadow shot is beautiful, as always.

Tracy .. I'm sorry I didn't get to know Bobbie, she sounds like a bright light that will be truly missed by those who have known her.
We need more people like her .. perhaps those she inspired will fill the light she kept glowing again. The quote is wonderful .. I want to try and remember it every day now. Thank you !
Joy
PS .. I created my post before I knew of your sad news .. I hope Bobbie still has a sense of humour where ever she is ;-)

Sam said…
Oh! So sorry to hear about Bobbie Tracy. She's sounds like a very special person. It is a very thoughtful and lovely thing to do to make a tribute collage for her. May she rest in peace and her family draw strength and courage from fellow family members and friends.

P.S. Love your shadow shot - the more posts you do on your art gallery the more I want to race up there and check it out - there always seems to be something excellent going on up there! Have a super week ahead sweetie! XOXO's

A lovely tribute, especially the mosaic of her shadows.

Loving your SSS - the shadow almost looks like it's in front of the object - very cleverly shot.

Thanks once again for hosting x

Rinkly Rimes said…
I didn't 'know' Bobbie but I feel her personality comes through in your lovely mosaic. It's always sad when a vital person disappears but I think your quote says it all. Bobbie obviously lived her life to the full and that's what counts.
