It is with great sadness that we announce that Miharu suddenly passed away as a result of a heart attack.
She leaves three young children and her loving husband behind.
Miharu had many friends here on 1x and was well known for her wonderful children photography and her florals with home bred snails.
An interview with her was published the 1st of April 2024.
We will always remember your splendid children portraits and your unique storytelling florals.
We will miss you, Miharu.
Rest in peace.
This is Miharu's latest awarded image
'secret garden poetry'
with her lovely and typical storytelling comment : "The first friend our little pet snails met in the secret garden was wearing a cute lamp cap.
With excitement, they invited the flowers to 'let's have a spring dance'"

My sincere condolences to the family. Rest in peace. |
 | Lourens Durand CREW Sad news... |
 | Gabrielle Halperin I just heard the sad news! What a great loss of such a wonderful artist and great person! may she rest in peace. |
 | Saad Salem PRO Dear 1x.com team, may I suggest that the site would put a black ribbon on her last awarded and published images on the site. And this could apply too to any member who passes away. I mean it would become a routine of the site towards its deceased members for acknowledging their works and to let every viewer of her or his portfolio that she or he have passed away. |
| Yvette Depaepe CREW Dear Saad, Miharu's portfolio wears a cross as a sign she passed away. It is visible everywhere, also on all the comments. This happens each time a member passes away, like my good friend and travel partner Robert Thomson several years ago. |
