The Golden Hour


The Golden Hour, originally uploaded by lablover47.

Words of the photographer :
"That was the title for our Picture This! assignment this week, referring to those times near sunrise and sunset when the light is magical. Unfortunately, we've had nothing but cloudy and rainy days. I snapped this one just before sunset when the sun peeked through the clouds after a rain for a very short time. These maple leaves start out red and turn green later. I did not sharpen; the golden outline around the leaves occurred naturally because of the sun's back-lighting"
