Magic hour

It's that hour between evening and night, when the day businesses are closing up, but the night businesses haven't opened their doors.  Everyone is in transit - leaving work, going out, not here anymore, but not there yet either.  While time adjusts itself, there are those places that sit quietly, waiting for the sun or moon or stars to rise...or maybe just for darkness to settle in.

Magic hour

  1. This seems familiar to me... Where is it? It's a lovely, and lonely, shot.

  2. This is the north side of Great Jones, between Broadway and Lafayette. There's currently a treacherous sheet of ice outside the gates of the alley - perfect for skating.

  3. An eerie and moody photo and your description was great. It's my favorite time of the day, when that rotten sun goes away! Nice work.
