It was a longer pause than it seemed to him, as all things appeared to happen quickly in it, somewhat as in a photographic life-picture when the Films are run too quick.
"Somehow Good"
William de Morgan
If the glen itself looked ghostly and lifeless and colorless, there were warmer hues overhead; for a pale salmon-flush still suffused the sky; and where that half-crimson glow, just over the dark, heather-stained hill, faded into an exquisite transparent lilac, there hung a full moon-a moon of the lightest and clearest gold, with its mysterious continents appearing as faint gray Films.
"Prince Fortunatus"
William Black
Rising above the horizon, a suspended lamp of frosty, pearl-colored glass, the moon for ten days of twenty-four hours, each month, encircled about us, now lost behind ice-sheeted mountains, again subdued under colored Films of frost clouds, but always relieving the night of its gloom, and permitting, when the wind was not too turbulent, outside activity.
