Grief


Seeing as how it is October and all, I figured it might be time to trot out some of my more elaborate and interesting funery images. This one, from the Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, is one of the most striking portrayals of love and loss I've ever seen. The woman is seen reaching up from beneath the stone to ease her lover's grief, but death, with his bony fingers, holds her down. Powerful stuff.

The good stuff:

The 6 a.m. thump of the morning newspaper
the fiscal promise of the "send" button
having enough to share
the sweet smell of success - and orange blossoms
deadlines met
expectations exceeded
oleander
owl telegraph
sudden deer
lizards pooching their dewlaps
