This is the second part of Golden Hour Sunset photography at Utah’s Little Grand Canyon.
I used this old tree skeleton as a foreground in a number of compositions as the sun set and light moved up the tree leaving the base in shadow.
Only the rocks on the distant horizon have golden hour light in ‘Golden Hour 16’, but the sky is gaining color.
When shooting at golden hour, it is rewarding to look around and towards the western sky, as the setting sun often creates wonderful colors in clouds, which might go unnoticed if one focuses too much on the eastern sky.
After sunset, we set our cameras up to shoot the night sky. As usual, I’m slow in processing those many, many images. So I’ll have to postpone the night sky blog and move onto sunrise images in the next post.
Thanks for following,
