Magic Hour

Saturday I was up and out before everyone else was awake. I had my trusty camera with me and my goal was to take some pictures. One of my goals, anyway. Another goal was to have a little peace and quiet, which has become more and more rare in my house.

In Wikipedia, the "magic hour" in photography is described as "the first and last hour of sunlight during the day when a specific photographic effect is achieved with the quality of the light during these hours." I was trying for something like that, and drove up to the Brunswick Bridge to take some early morning pictures of the Potomac.

I also took a few pictures in the town, before heading back home to be Mr. Mom while the Missus went to work.

Here are a couple of pictures from that morning.
