Like many people around the world, I'm heartbroken over today's fire at Notre-Dame de Paris. It could have been worse, and I'm very grateful for the work that the firefighters did to save the main structure. But so much was lost. I'm glad I got to see the cathedral when I did. I hope to see it again someday, but I don't think it will ever be the same.
I took this photo in June 2011, just after I caught my first glimpse of the cathedral from across the river, in front of the Hôtel de Ville (on the left). I'll always remember that moment.
