Description
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.
What’s New
Version 1.5
Fixed display issues that occurred on larger phones and tablets.
The reminder system has been rewritten which should fix some reported bugs and make reminders more reliable.
Apple Watch app has been removed. I'm planning to replace with a newer version soon.
Ratings and Reviews
Simple, attractive, complete
Was happy to pay the $1.99 to unlock future dates. Perfect for the photographer looking to find out the golden hour at a certain time and location - nice and simple. Love it and thanks!
Photog's best eFriend
Uniquely advises of Blue as well as Golden Hour, but one odd omission: no way to set global alerts. Instead, you set them up hour/day at a time. If that oddity were cured, this would be my top lighting app, but for now, the others have global alerts so I'm stuck.
Great concept, poor execution
This idea of this app is just what I've been looking for. So of course I upgraded to get other locations. After I did that and tried to change the location, the app crashed and would not reopen. I would have to delete the app and reinstall. Will be requesting a refund. Too bad. Would be a brilliant app for photographers if it worked.
