Coming Light

When shooting outdoor photography knowing the light that awaits you at the destination can make the difference between mediocre and outstanding photos. Golden hour is a magical time of day where the light is perfect for portraits and photographing autumn leaves. Blue hour provides wondrous cityscapes and urban images. Star photography needs the sun out of way to let the stars shine through and moonless nights.

Coming Light tells you when the sun will be right for photography on your next outdoor excursion. See the times of the transitions of light from twilight, blue hour, and golden hour in both the morning and evening. You can see what time the light reaches the correct position. You can set reminders for a specific date and time, or set global reminders that will alert you before blue hour or golden hour at your current location. For any event you can view the location of the relevant object at the location. You can also see the time of moonrise and moonset along with the moon's phase to better plan your photo work.

Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
