Basic Photography | Capturing Blue Hour Photography
© Wazari Wazir | Petronas Twin Tower at Kuala Lumpur City Centre ( KLCC ) | Blue Hour Photography According to Wikipedia The Blue Hour comes from the French expression “l’heure bleue,” which refers to the period of twilight each morning and evening where there is neither full daylight nor complete darkness. The time is considered special because of the quality of the light at this time of day. The time just before sunrise or after sunset. Among the most favorite subject for Blue Hour photography is landscape, building or cityscapes. I’m not an expert on this subject because I rarely shoot landscape, building or cityscape but nevertheless I do know that the best time to…
