Magical Light Photo Gallery by Frank Vetere at pbase.com

Magical Light

The hour after sunrise and before sunset has been called the "Magic Hour" by Galen Rowell and other great landscape photographers. In this gallery, I have collected photos taken during that special time of the day where the warm, low angle lighting is the key compositional element, often changing an ordinary scene into a memorable photograph.

You make it difficult to choose one that stands out as the best. I like them all. You have done a good job with capturing the light but also done a good job with composition. Well done!
