Golden Hours

I didn't know there was a term for the warm light hours.  It's called the "golden hour".  That's the period shortly after sunrise and shortly before sunset when light rays travel through more of the earth's atmosphere and all the diffraction resulting from it gives rise to a golden light.

I live in Toronto and so here is a link that tracks the golden hours in my region:  https://sunsetsunrisetime.com/golden-hour/toronto_(canada).  The morning golden hours are about an hour long in the morning and in the evening.

As the Sun Sets

I forgot how warm the feeling of the sun near sunset. My condo unit faces south and it's at the right angle to receive a warm glow of the reflection of the sunbeams off a building just south of me as the sun starts to set. I happened to be in the bathroom when I noticed the shower head was engulfed in a beautiful light. I knew it wouldn't last long so I grabbed what was the best camera I have, that is, what I easily have access to, my phone.

The phone did some colour correction so I re-coorected it to show the warmth I saw.
