Professional photographers know not to shy away from otherwise destructive natural elements while taking photos. Two great examples of this are dust and light. They’re the secret to colorful morning and evening light.
Why? Because when the atmosphere comes through the dust or after a storm, it refracts and creates colors.
- With dust, you tend to get oranges.
- With water, you tend to get pinks and purples.
