A Photo a Week Challenge: Golden Hour
Really, there are two golden hours — early and late. Our land makes sunrise easier to see with fewer trees on that side of the property. The front of the house looks into a solid wall of oaks. Sometimes though, I get lucky. We are in the right place at the right time. I’ve got a good camera and the sky is glowing.

It was kind of amazing. I just capture it, but nature offers it up.

It was a trick of the sun against the pine trees. Glorious. The pictures aren’t as good as they should be because most of them were taken through the car windows. We couldn’t find a place to pull off until we were almost home and could leave the limited access road. By then, the light was nearly gone. It was something to see. I have never seen the sun do that and I may never see it again. Special.

It was fun … after I found the pictures. You have convinced me that I really must deal with organizing photographs. It just gets worse every month.

This is one thing that digital has made so much easier for me. I have photos organized on a dedicated hard drive.

Mine are organized by month and year on separate hard drives. Unfortunately, that doesn’t really tell me what’s inside all those folders. I remember vacations and special events, but all the day to day pictures? I just don’t remember!

That golden glow is there. BTW, I just check a few of my rose bushes and there are buds there. Good sign.

If it isn’t raining tomorrow, I’ll look again. As of two days ago, there were no buds I could see. We had 1/2 day of sun today. Maybe it helped.

We were driving home and the sky turned golden. I had a camera 🙂 So much of photography is being in the right place with a good camera 🙂
