Lighting tip Number X : Golden Hour in Photography: One hour before sunset (5pm on a clear day) or one hour after sunrise (7am on a clear day)

Lighting tip number X:   

       Professional photographers

call the last hour

before sunset

and the first hour

after sunrise

the “Golden Hour

in Photography”.

     In this part of the globe,

   that would be,

on a clear day, 

between 5pm and 6:45pm (afternoon)

and between about 6:45am

and 7:45am (morning) .

    If you catch the

5pm sunlight

streaming on your face

on a clear day,

take a selfie.

       Shot 13 hours ago

at 5:21pm. Nyeeh.

Photo shot by Myra Lambino last Monday, unfiltered:

     Driving through the fog

   on a February morning

(the second one is a pinkified version, i pinkified it)

This is the establishing shot of two very different movies :

A Scriptwriting Exercise :

      See how light and color can convey a story.

      In the second one, a figure slowly emerges from the fog — he is the leading man and he has amnesia…

       In the first one, a figure slowly emerges from the fog, he is a reptile and he doesn’t have amnesia.

     Which is the rom-com (romantic comedy)

      and which is the suspense- thriller?

      Who is the leading man

       and who is the villain?

      Why does the leading man always have to have

       John Lloyd Cruz eyes?
