Remembering my brother Allen by gilbertwood

Remembering my brother Allen

At the weekend I received my late brother's last book. He was writing this book when he was diagnosed with cancer and his goal was to see it published. Sadly he did not get to see it published, but at least he finished the final draft before his death in October. I had to photograph it in one of my apple trees that he had pruned, and planned to graft other varieties onto it. Sadly that didn't happen, but his memory will never fade.
What a wonderful memory to have of your brother, and what a beautiful image you've created with all those apples surrounding you both.
