Orange color photography rewards photographers who train their eye to find it and have the compositional sense to use it well.
Placed against cool tones like blue or teal, orange creates some of the strongest natural contrast available in a photograph without any artificial enhancement.
The warm orange cast of low sun transforms ordinary subjects into something richer, and orange color photography at these times of day requires almost no effort beyond showing up with a plan.
Where to find orangeNatural light at the edges of the dayThe hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset produce the most concentrated orange light available.
A few practical remindersExpose carefully around strong orange light.
