When shooting with natural light, the golden hour is by far one of the most visually pleasing times to photograph. We want to see your best images from this golden period of time. The golden hour is the time each day when the sun is just above the horizon, to right after it goes sinks below at sunset. At this time of day, contrast is greatly lessened, making photographing with great results nearly impossible. We are looking for lifestyle images of people and places at this perfect time of day. So get ready, get out there, and get capturing. Good Luck and Happy Shooting!

9 years ago - Thank you for the nomination!

9 years ago - @subrosa1 I'm not @Snapwire, but I have used it for quite some time now...I've never found that uploading photos to a request or challenge at night (or any other time of day) makes it less likely to be seen. What I've found is that the quality of the photo and relevancy to the request matters most.

9 years ago - Wow, thank you very much for the nomination so chuffed thank you

9 years ago - Also, thank you for the nominations @snapwire!

9 years ago - Thanks for the nomination! Yay! 💖

9 years ago - I was wondering if someone post their pictures late at night does that make them less likely to be seen by the buyer since by morning a lot more have been posted before it?
