Capturing Golden Images

The majority of my photographs are taken either early in the morning or late in the afternoon, around or after sunset. This timing is intentional to capture the unique colors visible during these periods. In contrast, during peak sunlight hours between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM (or more accurately, between 9:00 AM and 1:30 PM in Maine due to its eastern location relative to the rest of the US), the light often takes on a bluish tint. Morning light, on the other hand, tends to have a warm, golden hue. If you've ever noticed a discrepancy between the vibrant colors you see in the early morning and what appears in your photos, the camera setting known as White Balance could be the reason. When set to Auto, this feature frequently neutralizes color tints, making whites appear as pure white rather than with a golden tint. To enhance your sunrise images, try adjusting the setting to Daylight or Cloudy to see the difference.
