Light On Dark Water

This is where I'll be at midnight tonight.

Oddly, there's a whole web site devoted to the Cathedral, and yet very few good pictures of it. Here is all you get of the windows. You can see the exterior here.

I went to Christmas midnight Mass here about ten years ago, and it was completely ruined by the presence of a TV broadcast crew which shone lights about as bright as the sun directly into the eyes of the congregation. It was miserable, and a classic case of the attempt to capture an event technologically resulting in the ruin of the actual event. Since then, though, the TV people have either improved their technology or adapted their techniques, as they haven't been very intrusive for the past few years.

The building has magnificent acoustics, and the music tonight will be very beautiful (and one of my daughters is in the choir).
