The castle bears witness to a battle that rages in the sky; the unavoidable emptiness of the approaching night pitched against the valiant last gasps of an exhausted winter's day.

Emotionless, the castle awaits the inevitable, as twilight scatters the remnants of the light in a furious burst of orange, purple and red.

The commuters below make their journeys through the town, oblivious to the struggle that unfolds above them - the castle stands unmoved as the last dying rays seep over the horizon, until finally the dark takes hold, and the town is bathed in sodium vapour.
