Assignment
Let's have some fun with Blue Hour photography! Everyone talks about "Golden hour/Magic hour" but in my opinion BLUE hour is even more magical! Blue Hour is that special time just after sunset or just BEFORE sunrise when the sky is not completely dark yet, the sun is down but there is soft light particles everywhere, and everything has a magical blue tint. Maybe you want to take a cityscape photo with all the lights starting to turn on or a picture of nature with the sky turning shades of pink and purple. Orange city lights are a fantastic way to grab some complementary colors. The soft blue light also adds a dreamy and romantic touch to portraits, while photographing animals in their natural habitat during the Blue Hour can create a moody and mysterious effect. It gets dark quickly at this time, so make sure to keep adjusting your settings, especially your ISO, if necessary. You can also experiment with long exposure shots to capture light trails from cars or create a surreal effect with water or clouds. This is a fantastic time of day to get long exposure shots!
