Blue Hour and Golden Hour at the Giant's Causeway

The blue hour and golden hour that both occur every morning and evening are rightly considered by landscape photographers to be the best times of day to capture scenic landscapes.

Lasting for a short time either side of sunrise and sunset the ephemeral light is soft and colourful, sympathetic to the natural landscapes.

Here, The Giant's Causeway in County Antrim, Northern Ireland looking fine as the blue hour gives way to the golden hour.

Join Panoramic Ireland on a photography workshop at the Giant's Causeway or elsewhere in Ireland.
