As every photographer knows, the best light occurs right around sunrise and right around sunset. The two aren’t interchangeable either. The light has a very different quality when filtered through cool misty morning air than through warm and hazy evening air. I know all these things, and yet I can’t usually bring myself to get out and shoot at sunrise. I’m just not a morning person.
