Golden Hour The golden hour, also known as magic hour, refers to the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset when the sunlight has a warm, soft, and golden quality due to its low angle relative to the horizon. During the golden hour, the sun's rays pass through a thicker layer of the Earth's atmosphere, scattering shorter blue wavelengths and allowing longer red and orange wavelengths to dominate the light spectrum.
This results in soft, diffused light with warm tones that enhances the colors, textures, and contrast in landscapes, portraits, and other photographic subjects. The golden hour is highly prized by photographers for its flattering lighting conditions, long shadows, and dramatic atmospheric effects, making it an ideal time to capture stunning outdoor photographs with rich visual appeal. |
