Golden Hour

The golden hour is something that all seeming photographers and portrait photographers should know about, and it is sometimes referred to as the Magic Hour. And it is the traditionally It's the the hour right after the sun comes up in our right, before the sun goes down at the beginning and end of the day. But technically it is when the sun is six degrees above and below the horizon. That's when this this magic happens. What that magic is is the son. This is so low in the sky, the light has to travel a greater distance through the atmosphere. And so what happens is the atmosphere actually strips out a lot of the blue in the sunlight, and it makes the sun look orange and golden, and that's why it's called the Golden Hour.
