Yesterday I left work late, night had fallen, and though I had a usable bicycle, shot in the morning, I did not stop looking. I finally found a yellowish/orange Vespa scooter, but it would not pose as I needed it. It was impossible to separate from the grown-up motorcycles around it, and thus I used it as a diffuse foreground.
The Song of the Day is “The Way You Look Tonight” from Bryan Ferry’s wonderful 1999 album of standards, “As Time Goes By”. I have no luck with this album, nobody put the song on YouTube and the sound sample from last.fm covers only the instrumental intro, but at least if you are a resident of the US, you may be able to hear it on Rhapsody.com. At least that’s what I think, I can’t check.

Wouldn't have guessed that this was a Vespa, thought it looked more like a motorcycle than a scooter. Great composition and bokah.
