Bob and I were visiting Zion and I met a very talented photographer, Edwin Firmage, who was selling and displaying his work. Check his site http://www.firmageditions.com/info.html
He was telling me where he was going to shoot the morning sunrise, a beautiful area behind the information center. Honestly, you could not go wrong shooting there :). Thanks again.
I so wanted to do this challenge....and life just never let me out of it's grasp at the magic hour. This is a beautiful image. I'll hop around and see the others.
Marie, you picked a perfect image to use to highlight the challenge. I really like the fact that, while it was taken at sunrise, it's not a photo OF the sunrise. The golden hour is really all about how the light during that magical time strikes the objects we see everyday and transforms them. Betty--you did a wonderful job with this shot! Vicki
To clarify how to find the magic hour (hour before sunset or after sunrise, can extand past each hour). I can best describe how to locate, face a sunset or sunrise and then turn around there is your magic hour of lighting.
My picture featured here, the sunrise was behind me, highligting the mountain I took. I will post a few more pictures on the same mountain so you can see how the magic hour grew that morning.
By far this is the best lighting to take pictures. I was not aware of the Magic Hour until Greg posted on my journal.
Other examples of the Magic Hour, photos ,5,6,7,8,9, 10 11, 12, 13, 14, 18, 19 on my site http://bpdphotos.smugmug.com/gallery/4726646_GWxbc#P-1-9
I felt this was the best example of The Magic Hour. That was why I highlighted it. It's not about the sunset, it is about the light at that time of the day.
On my journal, I wanted to show the colors all around me & how different they were. The photos themselves were weak, but the colors were there. I will be working on the Magic hour this summer. I plan another entry on my journal later on in the summer, possibly in the fall.

yes....beautiful indeed.
My only question is...what's the difference between someone being "highlighted" and someone "winning"?
