A couple of things here
First of all, it may come in handy to know that you can apparently get a handful of cemetery flowers for a dollar.
Second, this should quiet, forever, those doubters who say that cats do not go to heaven. Obviously they do: why else would this cat have angel wings?

Angel, grounded
And here’s a cemetery angel, helpfully illustrating “dust to dust” for anyone who happens by.

WARNING: COLOR IMAGE TO FOLLOW!
Sorry. I hope the warning worked and you weren’t too shocked.
Here’s the thing: I took my camera with me to the garden center because I haven’t been taking many photos lately and I sort of couldn’t come up with a better place to shoot. We were going there anyway, see, and it would give me something to do while the Patient Spouse got the [insert garden-y thing here] that he was looking for.
I think you see my point: this would have been pointless in black and white.
Thank you for your indulgence while I strayed away. I’ll be back tomorrow, all black and white, like usual.

Burnt
Start here, with this long article about the fire. I’ll wait.
This part is relevant to the photo:
Her truck stopped on the Rue du Cloître Notre-Dame, a narrow street that runs on one side of the cathedral. The building was so gigantic, she couldn’t see where the fire was spreading anymore.
“We were so small that it was hard to get a proper idea from the bottom of the cathedral,” she said. “But it might have been better like that.”
We were standing on Rue du Cloître Notre-Dame when I made this image. It’s hard to look at the photo now, especially after reading the article.
