My daughter, son-in-law and I shot Lakeside Cemetery in Seattle yesterday. Not a great day weather wise. This was a case where I would need to MAKE photos rather than TAKE them.

So here are a few pairs of photos: 1st brighter and in color; 2nd darker and in black and white. VOTE WITH YOUR RESPONSES: LIFE if you prefer color, DEATH if you prefer B&W.







We visited Bruce and Branden Lee's graves and on one of them this inscription from The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles.

"Because we don’t know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens a certain number of times and a very small number, really. How may more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that’s so deeply a part of your being that you can’t even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless."
