Green, yellow and red leaves in the evening sun. (Berkeley, CA)I just learned that this particular time of day with warm light and long shadows has an official name: In photography, the golden hour is the first and last hour of sunlight during the day. (In film it's often called the magic hour.)
Times for today:
Sunrise in Berkeley, CA – 5:47 am
Sunset in Berkeley, CA – 8:31 pm
Sunrise in Edmonton, AB – 5:05 am
Sunset in Edmonton, AB – 10:02 pm

golden hour light is so tasty!
here it's hard to pick out the exact magic hour now, because the sun is always hovering on the edge of the horizon, and the dawns and twilights are stretched, warped. i lose track of time and the sky tells me nothing now. nights are just a paling of the colours, and the birds don't bother to stop singing.
mmm. amazing. it's important that you were there for the darkest part of the year, and the brightest. the solstice festival is coming up soon!
