1184 - 'Round Midnight

Weather forecasts are funny. We got maybe a third of the predicted amount of snow, and thankfully so far nothing of the predicted rain. Today there’s even the potential for a partly sunny day, at least I can see some blue sky from my window.

Anyway. This is an image from last night, we were at a corporate Christmas party that had been delayed to actually after Christmas, and when we returned to Villach, it was around midnight. I had not made a single image on whole Saturday, and when we came up from the underground garage, I decided to try a few shots in the corridor. The corridors in our building are open to the outside, only protected by a glass facade, and that fact has already served me well last winter.

Technically this image was taken 33 seconds past midnight, but I still count it for yesterday. It’s a JPEG, straight out of the camera.

The Song of the Day is “‘Round Midnight” by Thelonious Monk. I have it on the 1989 soundtrack album “Straight No Chaser: Music From The Motion Picture”. See a video on YouTube, and while you’re there, why not see another live version, this time sung by noone less than the great Ella Fitzgerald?
