Happy autumnal equinox! There's nothing quite like being up north in the fall. The crisp air, beautiful sunsets and a palpable exhalation of the locals and shoulder-season tourists who enjoy having a little more elbow room after the summer crowds go away. A northern fall is the perfect season to revel in the light and color of my favorite time of day - dusk. Something magical happens at this time, do you notice? It's elusive to photograph though I won't stop trying. The royal blue glow of these lights contrast nicely with the bright and linear interior of this cafe. Had I noticed the composition at the time, I would've shifted slightly to the left to capture the young woman sweeping the floors in her apron. Regardless, I can sense the closing of a day, a season, and the preparation for the next chapter: winter. - l.o.d.
