846 - Colore Ma Vie

It’s Friday afternoon, I’m on the train again, and after a week of fog and rain finally the sun came out, just when I was in such a hurry, that I could not shoot a single image any more. C’est la vie!

But that’s really something to complain about in the next entry, right? These are two of the images that I shot when I left work yesterday afternoon. It was a dull, cloudy day, and if it had not been, the sun would have been down anyway. I lusted for color, and here are the results: a yellow mailbox with some black graffiti and lemons on a tree in front of a flower shop. Heaven knows how they survive 🙂

The Image of the Day was originally a vertical with the black line being sharp where it ran into the lower right corner, but I finally decided to crop up to a square, making the image completely abstract.

The Song of the Day is “Colore Ma Vie” by the great Charles Aznavour, the title song of his 2007 album. YouTube has the song, and they also have a nice making-of video about the album.
