The Golden Hour

The Golden Hour

from; digital photography review

“The “hour” part of the golden hour is a misnomer. The length of time depends on how long the sun plays on the horizon. That changes by the time of the year and the latitude. Near the equator, the golden hour lasts but a few minutes as the sun moves relatively quickly. Closer to the poles, the golden hour can last for hours.

The quality of the light during the golden hour can be dramatically different from what comes before and after. The difference in time can be just a few brief minutes, so be prepared.”
