The Golden Hour

I have photographer and artist friends who can explain this much better, but the golden hour is the hour just before the sun sets. I'm not entirely clear on the science of it all, but the angle of the light is low and it seems that the light is shifted to the red end of the spectrum. The resulting effect on shepherd fur is magical.

Rugger is a red and black shepherd and that's a beautiful coat any time of day, but during the golden hour it really comes alive. I haven't adjusted the color on any of these pictures.
