When it comes to blue hour, timing is everything. As we mentioned, blue hour happens just before sunrise and just after sunset. Look for those city lights coming on, but don’t wait until it’s so dark that it becomes a nighttime shot. Ensure that you check your phone for what time the sun goes down, and plan around that time. Usually, this happens around dinner time depending on what time of the year it is. This is fantastic because there may be fewer people at more popular landmark destinations!
