A big thanks to everyone who joined in with the selective color photography challenge last month.

So for this month I thought we could try a golden hour challenge.

If you would like some tips on golden hour photography then this article will point you in the right direction:

And you can also find some inspiration over on Flickr:

This is not a competition so there will be no winners announced, it's purely for fun and self-development.

Simple Rules:
  • Canon R Series cameras only please
  • No sky replacements, keep it real
  • Please don't post more than 3 separate posts, multiple images may be included in a single post
Have fun!

Taken last night, with this challenge in mind. We had just had a heavy rain storm and a mix of sun and thunder clouds to the West.

My very first Canon RF images were taken when I tested the Canon R by renting it from LensRentals.com. We had a great sunset at Horsetooth Reservoir near Fort Collins, CO on 07.05.2020. I used my EF 11-24 f/4 and was very impressed. I was so impressed I sold all three of the Canon DSLR camera bodies in my possession at the time. I do still have the EF 11-24 f/4, however. It's just too good to give up at this point.
