It’s a sight that few people can see with their own eyes: the sun rising above the curvature of the Earth. NASA has released a spectacular series of images of an orbital sunrise from the International Space Station (ISS).
The images were taken as the ISS was 262 miles above the Pacific ocean, starting over Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula and finishing up over the Aleutian Islands.
Even if you’re not an early bird, here’s something worth getting up earlier for. On 10 June this year, the US and Canada-based photographers will be able to observe and shoot a “sunrise eclipse.” In other words, the sun will rise in the middle of a deep partial eclipse, giving you a chance for creating some striking images.
Golden Hour and Blue Hour are the optimum times for us photographers. It’s been drilled into us since day one. We have apps that tell us when the sun will rise and set, and tell us in which direction. The thing is, it’s only worth knowing that information if the sunset or sunrise is going to add to our shot.
There’s a science behind beautiful sunrises and sunsets. This article aims to arm you with the key factors which make for a beautiful sky.
