This weekend the Guardian and Observer published a really lovely Guide to the night. My favourite piece without a doubt is Jeanette Winterson on why she adores the night. Just gorgeous:
Food, fire, walks, dreams, cold, sleep, love, slowness, time, quiet, books, seasons – all these things, which are not really things, but moments of life – take on a different quality at night-time, where the moon reflects the light of the sun, and we have time to reflect what life is to us, knowing that it passes, and that every bit of it, in its change and its difference, is the here and now of what we have."
Watch and be astonished: jaw-droppingly beautiful footage of cities at night made by Don Petit on Expedition 6 to the International Space Centre.
