| [00:25.62]Photo of the dead [00:30.94]死亡照片 [00:36.97]A white marble cross that marked their graves [00:39.64]had been broken off at the base, [00:42.25]perhaps by vandals or a lightning bolt, [00:45.83]and had fallen on the ground at the head of the tomb. [00:49.16]Small, orange wildflowers were growing up around it. [00:53.69]This might not have been so unusual [00:56.04]except for the fact [00:57.37]that they were the only flowers growing anywhere [00:59.90]in the cemetery. [01:01.87]The contrast of these symbols of life and springtime [01:05.02]next to a symbol of death was so striking, [01:08.73]I decided to take a photograph of it. [01:11.25]I took my camera out of my backpack [01:13.70]and started looking for a good angle [01:16.07]for the photograph but couldn't find one. [01:19.52]I decided that the best angle [01:21.32]would be from the top of the tomb [01:23.44]looking straight down at the cross, [01:25.95]but I felt that standing on it would be disrespectful [01:29.88]so I took a few shots from other angles. [01:32.93]Unsatisfied, I said to the young couple buried there, [01:36.63]"Excuse me. I don't mean any disrespect [01:39.92]but I'd just like to stand on your tomb for a second [01:42.71]to take a picture of your flowers. [01:44.97]I hope you don't mind." [01:47.34]Hoping I had won their approval, [01:50.06]I stood on the lid [01:51.30]and took the photo from the angle I wanted. [01:54.24]I can't recall feeling any cold sensations [01:57.78]or chills other than the ones I was already riddled [02:01.24]with due to my overactive imagination. [02:05.16]I stepped down from the tomb and said thank you. [02:08.66]Before I left, [02:09.56]I picked up their cross [02:10.87]and put it back in place on their tomb. [02:14.61]The break was clean so it fit like a puzzle piece. [02:18.61]The sun was setting quickly [02:20.48]and I was worried about finding my way back in the dark, [02:25.02]so I decided to head home. [02:27.31]I walked through the creaky, old gate again [02:30.29]and kick-started the motorcycle. [02:32.99]After being immersed in such profound silence [02:36.31]for so long, [02:37.82]the noise of the engine seemed louder than ever.
