Vietnamese sunset

To the northeast of Phan Thiet, behind a picturesque coastal road, climbing a hill to the ancient Cham tower, lies a long sandy beach, washed by the waters of the Mui Ne bay. Being still 15-20 years ago, a quiet and dying fishing village, today the beach and the town of Muine turned into a popular developing resort, where lovers of the warm sea, bright sun and fair wind flow.

Sunset. Golden hour.

This is wonderful time for making photos.
"Golden Hour" is also sometimes called "magic hour" - this is the first hour after sunrise and the last hour before sunset, although the exact duration varies depending on the season. At this time, the sun is low in the sky, giving a soft diffuse light, which is much nicer than the sharp afternoon light, which we often have to shoot.

Such lighting reduces the contrast, reducing the likelihood of losing the details of the subject, which could be drowned in deep shadows or be overexposed. A warm shade makes the picture more enjoyable, and long shadows help to emphasize details, adding texture and volume to the picture.

Another advantage: as a rule, in the "golden hour" there are fewer people on the street than at other times of the day, which makes it possible to make the picture more calm and natural.
