Twilight on Hitt Street

I don't take too many twilight photos downtown when I am trying to photograph downtown Columbia at night.  The light at this time of evening just doesn't look convincingly nocturnal.  Images appear weak, indeterminate, in between.  Josef Sudek was pretty good at using this kind of flat, hazy, low contrast light in some of his photos of Prague.  It is hard to feel sure about a grey-on-grey image, but here is one of Hitt Street back in March, 2016.  Ninth Street Video was still in business, or at least the sign was still attached to the front of the building.  I really miss that place.  So, an early spring evening on Hitt Street, downtown Columbia.
