After Dark

At night, the normal rules of Nature do not apply. The senses become reordered and nocturnal creatures take the stage. Combining Nightwalking and Nightlife , After Dark takes us out into the night to discover the natural world after dark, its rarely seen spectacles and curiosities. With acclaimed nature writer John Lewis-Stempel as our guide, we spot a moonbow, an arch of white light in the heavens; we watch hares box in a star-charmed, wave- earthed ploughfield; we tip our hat to a badger as he snuffled down the path. After Dark shows us our human insignificance by gazing up at the cosmic sprawl of the Milky Way.
