I don’t know about you, but when the golden hour turns the sky into a myriad of glorious colors it sure does energize me to grab my camera! 

When the sun is low in the sky, it is the perfect time of day to take advantage of backlighting your subject or trying your hand at silhouettes. When you illuminate your subject from behind, you might be surprised at details that stand out, things that might otherwise have been overlooked. 

No amazing sky today? No worries! This effect can also be achieved using the light from a window or open doorway to create your own backlighting. 

Can’t wait to see the light that energizes you today!
