Film Noir and Palette Grise


James Street, Hamilton, Ontario


C.A. Jeffrey (and I always call her "C.A. Jeffrey", just as Precious Ramotswe always calls her husband "J.L.B. Matekoni"; it is just the way we do things) sometimes  turns to a limited palette to capture the grey, misty days of the northwestern and northern shores of Lake Ontario. She - C.A. Jeffrey, that is - evokes a sense of Palette Grise, just as Raymond Chandler evoked the spirit of Film Noir when he wrote of Philip Marlowe in Los Angeles.
Her site is on the list at right, or use    http://cajeffrey.blogspot.com/

The site is "Postcards from the Hammer" and Hammer is Hamilton, Ontario.
