What happened before: the photographer had some vague images in his mind. He tried to make these images in the world.

After some searching he finds himself at the precipice. The sensation is at once expansive and restricting. He is waiting for the light to come closer to the horizon. But he waited too long. The light has faded and there is not enough to make a proper exposure. In a few moments it will be dark.

What happened after: the photographer puts away the camera and instead uses his hand to gesture.
