Photography - Blue Hour

in photography •  7 years ago 

The blue hour happens twice a day, once before sunrise and after sunset. It's when the sky is a deep blue color. Although, it usually doesn't last an hour. This is how I captured this image during the blue hour.

  1. Use a tripod for the long exposure (make sure if you have image stabilization on your lens to turn it off)
  2. I like to use a small aperture, such as f/22 to create starbursts with lights in the scene.
  3. Keep you ISO low
  4. Set white balance to tungsten.
