PROJ#11: THE MAGIC/GOLDEN HOURS

DEFINITION
In photography, the golden hour (sometimes known as magic hour) is a period shortly after sunrise (blue) or before sunset (golden) during which the Sun is lower in the sky.



DIRECTIONS

First, general sunrise & sunset times are HERE. (CLICK HERE).

For next class, bring back TEN+ images that you make during the magic hour over the next few days.

This rationale for this set of photographs is simply to have you observe and record the type of light that occurs during the "magic hour."
Subject matter is of your own choosing AFTER you have made at least HALF of your images of a person.

Compose your photographs the RULE OF THIRDS composition.

Extra credit will be awarded for morning magic hour photographs (for obvious reasons :)
