Waiting, not surveilling, at the hospital

I am infatuated by the light that lasts only a few minutes after the

sun goes down. Or just before it comes up. "Duckish," that light is

called around here. I used to try to get this with film and, from

thirty-odd years ago, I have a couple of pictures on slide film that

approximate it. But a good digital camera *does* make it a lot easier

than all my old film cameras to get it.



This is the Fuji X100. I set the focus at manual (close to infinity)

and allowed the camera to calculate what it needed in exposure. I may

have also had the +/- setting at a stop or two down.
