DEATH HOLDS BEAUTY (Sometimes, In Some Ways)

.
Ironic how sometimes the only way we humans get the chance for a really close, naked eye, inspection of the beauty of a creature is through its death.
.



.
And by the same token, how death sometimes offers the distance needed from something to finally be able to understand, or even appreciate it.
.
On the subject of death, I've always found peace in a particular quote, by who and the exact words I don't recall, but it's something like...
.
"Death is perfectly safe. It's just like slipping off a tight shoe."
