“For most of us, however, we’ve lost any sense of what twilight is, or does, and the rich language we once used to describe it – gloaming, toad-light, darkling, duskies, clicking-time. It once beguiled our poets and painters, our writers and philosophers, but it has now faded into the cultural background.”
Sally Coulthard laments that which we have lost in failing to notice the half-lit hours of dawn and dusk.
