Another week, another photography challenge! Here’s one that you can tackle in the next few days. For the 32nd week of their 52-week Photo Challenge, the folks of SlickPic want us to make creative use of dramatic Golden Hour. If you’re ready, it’s time to refill your creative juices and put your photography skills to the test!

In this challenge, the task is to capture subjects in the magical light of sunrise or sunset. At these times of the day, the sun is low in the sky and casts a warm, soft glow over everything it shines on. This touch of drama makes the Golden Hour popular for creating stunning landscapes, portraits, and architectural photos. To make the most of its striking effect, you must plan your shoot ahead, scout the best locations, and bring along useful accessories like tripod and ND Filters.

To help inspire you with some tips and ideas, we suggest checking out our resources on Golden Hour photography, as well as some useful tips from Adobe. In case you’re just joining, we also encourage you to check out the full info on the 52-week Challenge.
