The week following the attacks on 13 novembre, we walked past Notre Dame. There were tourists lined up for blocks to get inside for a glimpse of this exquisite cathedral and in addition, a strong military presence. Comforting and sad as well.
here in nyc over the last 14 years we've become very accustomed to seeing such sights .. yes, very disturbing to live like this and yes so comforting to see these men (and occasionally women) prepared to keep us safe

Sobering and eloquent.
ReplyDeleteWhat a contrast.
ReplyDeleteSuch a contrast. The same has happened here- police with assault rifles on Parliament Hill after the attack of last year.
ReplyDeleteSad—but what a great shot, V.
