Photos: The Golden Hour

Coachella Sahara Tent Sunset
My travels have taken my all over the world, and I’ve witnessed some beautiful sunrises and sunsets.  The “Golden Hour” is my favorite time of day to take photos; the light is simply astonishing.  This post is a response to the DailyPost weekly photo challenge.

Here are some photos I’ve taken over the years from California, Europe, Bali and Central America.  I hope you like them and Invite you to share your photos in the comments section!

      thank you, I enjoyed your latest posts on the Dingos of Fraser Island. I hope I don’t encounter one in the wild when I come visit Australia next year (or at least don’t get too close to one). I would love to be added to your blogroll if possible!

      Thanks for stopping by

    I think your photos are more about Idyllic Hour with some gold thrown in! … Sigh… I think I need that holiday. 🙂 Beautiful collection.
