I slept on the fold-out bed downstairs with the television on, so I could wake up at 3am to watch Mr. Obama put his hand on a bible and stumble through a few words. Quite predictably, I got a terrible few hours' sleep, and after the helicopter left I went back upstairs to my real bed and slept very soundly for a while longer.
I still woke up in the morning channeling Dick Cheney, with a post-Inauguration day backache, caused by awkward sleeping and the galivanting about yesterday.
Still, that's nothing to do with this photo. It was early evening, the light was pretty in my bedroom, and I took a picture hanging onto the windowsill. Then I stopped and thought about it, and the symbolism of the wonderful light, and looking out into it, a shiny new world, seemed somehow appropriate.
