Synopsis

Certain pursuits are intrinsically linked to darkness. Fishermen, for instance, employ artificial light to draw squid within reach of their nets. In Toronto, the damp earth yields night crawlers only under cover of night. Military personnel rely on specialized night vision equipment, while police helicopters utilize powerful Spectrolab spotlights to illuminate the ground below. Even a baseball stadium, bathed in its own manufactured glow, acknowledges the pervasive influence of the dark hours.
