The last blast of light before sunset

I was hanging out in a parking lot behind a restaurant, waiting for a take out order. I thought the scene would be too contrasty for my old film camera but I decided to try it anyway.


This time of day, there is a fair amount of foot and bicycle traffic on the odd little bit of street , heading toward and away from campus. I thought this lady was a nice companion for the two little trees. It was a couple weeks before I got the film processed. It gives you time to forget exactly what you were doing that day and be pleasantly surprised sometimes.
