The Magic Hour

The "Magic Hour" refers to the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset when natural light is soft, warm, and diffuse. During this time, the sun is low on the horizon, creating gentle shadows and a golden glow that enhances the beauty of photographs and films. The quality of light during the Magic Hour adds warmth, depth, and a sense of calm or magic to images, making it highly valued by photographers, filmmakers, and artists for capturing visually stunning scenes.
