Gold Hour
May 2022 - Image Set
See how different the light goes just before sunset. As the Earth turns around so the sun is just dipping down below the horizon, the atmosphere diffuses the light and softens it and removes all the glare. It is like an insta filter, but is a 100% natural effect and for most people's eyes it is a very soothing effect on the photographs as all the potentially saturated parts are softened and the shadows are made more subtle. Photographers call this the Golden Hour. I named this set Gold Hour as it has a golden glow and I am 100% solid gold right? You find you lose the light totally quite quickly so I just sat by the pool and whipped off my bikini and we took as many pictures as possible. Hope you guys approve of those tactics. I was getting thirsty and looking forward to my evening cocktail. After all, it's not all work, work, work you know. Lycia xx
