HT0947 - Quiet Light

John Sexton used the term "quiet light" as the title of one of his books. It seems the photography world has always been a buzz about the "golden hour" and the "blue hour," but I've always found that the hour just after sunset, the so-called quiet light hour, offers all kinds of interesting illumination that to my mind is far more interesting than the golden hour. Some of that may be due to the long exposures and reciprocity failure with film. But I suspect it's the quiet part that has more to do with a frame of mind.
