The Cold Hour

The Blue Hour
Photograph by Tom Atwood
Some photographers call this the "blue hour." I call it the cold hour. I don't remember the temperature when this particular photo was taken. I just recall my fingers were so numb I had trouble adjusting the settings on the camera. The time was 5:56 a.m. The location - a thin place between earth and sky along Strasen Lane near Marine, Illinois.
Shutter: 38 secs; Aperture: f/5.6; Focal Length: 27 mm; ISO: 200
