Be Ready For The Beautiful Golden Light Of Sunrise &amp; Sunset<\/h2>\n<p>Do you want to capture gorgeous golden light in your landscape photos?<\/p>\n<p>Then you have to be ready with your camera when the light is just right.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27607\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the sun is low in the sky, it lights up the scene with beautiful warm colors. That&#8217;s why sunrise and sunset are called the &#8220;golden hours.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But the light changes very quickly as the sun rises or sets. So you&#8217;ll need to get to your location in time to find some good compositions before the perfect light hits.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27754\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I love to shoot during sunrise. Early morning light is so beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d recommend going out with your iPhone 30 minutes before sunrise&#8230; just when the sky is beginning to look a bit pink.<\/p>\n<p>Start taking photos just before the sun peeks above the horizon. Then keep shooting as the sun comes up.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27622\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Make the most of the scene by <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/perspective-photography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">exploring different angles<\/a> and compositions.<\/p>\n<p>And take lots of photos to capture the stunning range of colors as the sun rises above the horizon.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27596\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the sun gets higher in the sky, the light becomes brighter and the golden colors begin to fade.<\/p>\n<p>But you can still capture some wonderful final shots if you find some <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/tree-photography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">trees<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Position the sun behind a tree, and capture the rays of light that appear through the branches.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27618\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not keen on getting up before sunrise, don&#8217;t worry!

Use Clouds To Add Interest &amp; Drama To The Sky<\/h2>\n<p>Not all sunrises and sunsets make great pictures.<\/p>\n<p>So, what do you need for the perfect golden hour landscape photo?<\/p>\n<p>You need clouds!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27597\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The most stunning golden hour photos usually have some clouds in the sky.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not talking about thick cloud-cover. A completely overcast sky is no good as it won&#8217;t let the beautiful colors of the sunlight through.<\/p>\n<p>But some interesting cloud formations will catch the magnificent colors of sunrise and sunset&#8230; pinks, purples, oranges, yellows, and reds.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27630\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Clouds add wonderful visual interest to your golden hour landscape photography.<\/p>\n<p>They make the <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/dramatic-skies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sky more dramatic<\/a>&#8230; and more beautiful.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27626\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The same photo without these cloud formations would look very different.<\/p>\n<p>On a clear, cloudless day, you&#8217;ll still get some beautiful golden colors near the horizon. But if there are clouds, the entire sky will be filled with spectacular, colorful detail.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27753\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, next time you&#8217;re shooting during golden hour, pay close attention to the sky.<\/p>\n<p>Are there any clouds? What type of clouds are they?<\/p>\n<p>How do the clouds change color as the sun gets closer to the horizon?<\/p>\n<p>Is the sun about to peek out from behind a cloud? Is it going to cast dramatic rays of light over the scene?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27599\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Pay attention to the sky&#8230; and you&#8217;ll soon discover that clouds are perfect for golden hour landscape photography!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">3. Shoot In Mist &amp; Fog For Wonderfully Moody Landscape Photography<\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another secret for fascinating golden hour landscape photography:<\/p>\n<p>Seek out <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/fog\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mist and fog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27633\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Mist creates compelling landscape photos. It adds a wonderfully <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/moody-landscape-photography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">moody atmosphere<\/a> and a little <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/mystery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sense of mystery<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And when you add in the golden light of sunrise and sunset, you&#8217;ll have a winning combination.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27600\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The scene will be bathed in a soft, warm glow which looks so beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re shooting around trees, you can also capture magical rays of light shining through the mist.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27627\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To capture these light rays, the sun needs to be a little higher in the sky. You want the sun to be shining at an angle through the tree branches.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re shooting directly into the light, position a tree branch in front of the sun. Adjust the angle of your iPhone until you see the rays of light appear.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27618\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can also compose your shot with the sun shining in from one side. This casts the rays of light across the scene.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27629\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Mist is more common at sunrise than sunset, so you&#8217;ll need to get up early!<\/p>\n<p>Check the weather forecast to find out if there&#8217;s a chance of mist. If there&#8217;s a big temperature difference between day and night, there&#8217;s a good chance you might get mist in the morning.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27595\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Just remember, for the best misty golden hour photos, you need a combination of sun and mist.<\/p>\n<p>If it&#8217;s completely overcast, the mist will appear dark and gray. And you won&#8217;t get those golden light rays.<\/p>\n<p>For the best photos, you need the sun to shine through the mist and cast its warm glow over the scene.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27634\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This magical combination of mist and sun will result in truly stunning landscape photos!<\/p>\n<h2>4. Include An Interesting Object As A Focal Point In Your Photo<\/h2>\n<p>A beautiful sunrise or sunset is the starting point for a great landscape photo. But you need more than just a beautiful sky.<\/p>\n<p>You need a focal point&#8230; some kind of object that grabs the viewer&#8217;s attention and gives them something to focus on.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27624\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before you take your photo in that breathtaking golden light, take a look around.<\/p>\n<p>What could you use as a <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/focal-point\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">focal point<\/a> in your photo?<\/p>\n<p>What could you include that would add a point of interest to your composition?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27619\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What could tell a story about the landscape you&#8217;re photographing?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe there&#8217;s a tree, a house, or a boat in the scene. Perhaps there&#8217;s a <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/people-in-landscapes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">person<\/a> or animal that you could include.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27601\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Look for smaller objects too. <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/flower-photography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Flowers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/leaves\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">leaves<\/a>, feathers, and spider webs make beautiful focal points in a landscape photo.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27621\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, a focal point allows you to create more powerful golden hour photos.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not just a sunrise or sunset picture now.

Capture Reflections For Breathtaking Golden Hour Landscape Photography<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/reflections\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Reflections<\/a> offer an amazing opportunity to create captivating photos&#8230; especially at sunrise and sunset.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27608\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>All you need is some water, such as a lake, canal, or wet sand at the beach. You could even use a small <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/puddle-water-reflections\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">puddle<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll get the best reflections when there&#8217;s no wind. If it&#8217;s windy, there might be too many ripples in the water to capture a good reflection.<\/p>\n<p>So, what&#8217;s the best way to compose a reflection photo?<\/p>\n<p>In landscape photography, we often use the rule of thirds when composing our image. In other words, we position the horizon nearer the top or bottom of the frame.<\/p>\n<p>But with reflection photography, central composition is the best option.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27628\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Placing the horizon across the center of the frame creates a perfectly symmetrical image.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/shooting-symmetry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Symmetry<\/a> is very powerful in photography. It instantly catches the viewer&#8217;s attention.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27632\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When you find a reflection, experiment with shooting from different heights. Bringing your iPhone closer to the water will change what you see in the reflection.<\/p>\n<p>If you struggle to fit the scene and its reflection into the frame, don&#8217;t worry! The iPhone offers some simple solutions.<\/p>\n<p>One option is to switch to\u00a0<strong>Pano<\/strong> mode in the <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-camera\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iPhone Camera app<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27764\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This mode lets you pan horizontally or vertically to capture a wider or taller photo. Shooting a <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/panoramic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">panoramic image<\/a> lets you choose exactly how much of the scene you include in your photo.<\/p>\n<p>If you have the <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-11-camera\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iPhone 11 camera<\/a> with the <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-11-lenses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ultra Wide 0.5x lens,<\/a> you could use that lens to capture more of the scene. Simply tap <strong>0.5x<\/strong> at the bottom of the Camera app to switch to the Ultra Wide lens.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27762\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"320\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you have an older iPhone, you could try using an <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/iphone-camera-lens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">add-on wide-angle lens<\/a> instead.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27761\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, reflections add so much to sunrise and sunset pictures.<\/p>\n<p>So when you&#8217;re shooting during golden hour, try to find some water&#8230; even if it&#8217;s just a small puddle!<\/p>\n<h2>6. Shoot Perfectly Exposed Sunrise &amp; Sunset Pictures<\/h2>\n<p>Shooting towards the sun can be tricky.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not careful, the bright light will overpower your photo. And if the sky is too bright, you&#8217;ll lose that amazing color.<\/p>\n<p>Getting the correct <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/exposure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">exposure<\/a> (brightness) is essential for stunning golden hour photography.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27758\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, how do you capture perfectly lit sunset and sunrise photos?<\/p>\n<p>First, be aware that the sun gets brighter as it rises in the sky.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, you have a better chance of capturing a well-exposed photo when the sun is close to the horizon.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27755\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Even then, the sun might cause the sky to look too bright in your photo.<\/p>\n<p>However, the iPhone camera makes it easy to adjust exposure when taking a picture.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27605\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>To bring the exposure (brightness) down, tap on the brightest part of the sky (or tap and hold to <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/ae-af-lock\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lock focus and exposure<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Tapping a bright area of the scene ensures the bright parts of the image are properly exposed.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27616\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Of course, the sun will still look very bright. But the surrounding sky should have plenty of color and detail.<\/p>\n<p>If necessary, you can swipe up or down to adjust exposure further. Swipe up to make the image brighter. Or swipe down to make it darker.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27594\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>If the sun is still very bright and overpowering, you have a few more options.<\/p>\n<p>One simple technique is to frame your shot with the sun just out of the frame. You&#8217;ll still get the amazing sunset colors, but the sun won&#8217;t overpower your shot.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27757\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another option is to block the sun with an object in the scene, such as a tree, a building, or a person.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27617\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While we&#8217;re talking about exposure, it&#8217;s also worth mentioning HDR.<\/p>\n<p>HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. The <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/hdr-meaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iPhone HDR camera feature<\/a> lets you capture more detail in both the bright and dark areas of your photo.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s perfect for high-contrast scenes, such as landscapes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27606\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>For that reason, I recommend shooting with HDR switched on.<\/p>\n<p>HDR settings vary slightly between iPhone models. You can find the HDR settings by going to <strong>Settings &gt; Camera &gt; HDR<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/28321\/1120\/iPhone-Camera-Controls.jpg\" alt=\"iPhone Camera Controls\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>7. Create Stunning Golden Hour Silhouette Photos<\/h2>\n<p>Golden hour is the perfect time to create powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/silhouette-photography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">silhouette photos<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The beautiful sky makes the perfect backdrop for a dark silhouetted subject.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27610\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, how do you create a silhouette photo?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s actually easier than it looks!<\/p>\n<p>All you need to do is position your subject against a bright background.<\/p>\n<p>The low sun at sunrise and sunset provides the perfect conditions for silhouette photography.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27615\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Start by pointing your camera towards the sun.<\/p>\n<p>Next, ensure your subject is positioned with the sun or bright sky behind them. People, trees, and windmills make great silhouette subjects.<\/p>\n<p>Crouch down low to get more of the bright sky behind your subject.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27602\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now, you just need to get the exposure right.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, you want the subject to appear very dark or completely black.<\/p>\n<p>All you need to do is tap on a bright part of the sky. The sky will be properly exposed and the subject should appear dark.<\/p>\n<p>If necessary, swipe down on the screen to reduce exposure even more.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry if it doesn&#8217;t look perfect when you take the shot. A <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/best-photo-editing-apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">photo editing app<\/a> like <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/snapseed\/id439438619\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Snapseed<\/a> makes it easy to add some more contrast.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27609\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For example, you can darken the shadows to make the silhouette blacker. Or brighten the highlights to make the sky pop a bit more.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, silhouettes make striking sunset and sunrise photos. And it&#8217;s so easy to create them with the iPhone!<\/p>\n<h2>8. Get Close To Your Subject To Create A Gorgeous Blurred Background<\/h2>\n<p>When you think of landscape photography, you probably think of a wide-open scene with everything in sharp focus.<\/p>\n<p>But don&#8217;t be afraid to shoot some <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/nature-close-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">close-up photos<\/a> with a shallow depth of field.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27612\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The closer you get to a foreground subject, the more blurry the background becomes.<\/p>\n<p>This shallow depth of field, where only a small part of the image is in focus, is often used in <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/portraits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">portrait photography<\/a>. But it can be effective in landscape photography too&#8230; especially at sunrise and sunset.<\/p>\n<p>The golden light creates a beautiful backdrop, even though the detail is out of focus.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27631\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A shallow depth of field draws attention to a certain aspect of the landscape, such as a flower, a spider web, or dew drops.<\/p>\n<p>If your subject is close to the ground, get down on your knees so you can shoot from a low angle.<\/p>\n<p>You need to get low so you can include the scenery and golden sky in the background.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27604\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ensure the scene isn&#8217;t too busy behind your subject. Even though it will be out of focus, you&#8217;ll still be able to see some detail. And if there&#8217;s too much going on in the background, your shot will look messy.<\/p>\n<p>Adjust your angle until you have some clear space, such as the sky, a field, or some water, behind the subject.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27613\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Position the iPhone camera lens just a few inches from the foreground subject. Then <a href=\"https:\/\/iphonephotographyschool.com\/focus-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tap to set focus<\/a> on the subject.<\/p>\n<p>This ensures the camera focuses exactly where you want it.<\/p>\n<p>Your subject should now appear sharp, and the background will be out of focus.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27614\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Landscape photos with a shallow depth of field can be really powerful.<\/p>\n<p>The blurred background focuses the viewer&#8217;s attention on a single foreground object. But the little bit of detail in the background adds to the story of the photo.<\/p>\n<p>So even though the background is out of focus, it&#8217;s still a very important element in your image.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27611\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once you start shooting shallow depth of field photos, you&#8217;ll discover a whole new side to landscape photography.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll no longer just look for those wide sweeping vistas. You&#8217;ll start to notice the smaller details too.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll stop.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll look around.<\/p>\n<p>And you&#8217;ll become aware of the beautiful things in nature&#8230; even the tiniest details.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full aligncenter ip-cdn\" src=\"https:\/\/images.iphonephotographyschool.com\/27752\/1120\/golden-hour-landscape-photography.jpg\" alt=\"golden hour landscape photography\" width=\"560\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s the most amazing thing about landscape photography.<\/p>\n<p>You come away with a deep appreciation of nature&#8230; as well as beautiful photos, of course!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you struggle to take beautiful sunrise and sunset pictures with your iPhone?
