Blue Buckingham....

blue hour at the Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park, Chicago....dunno how this started to be called as "the blue hour" or what really causes it so i'm off to google as soon as i'm done tagging this image.....pls. View On Black

 

this is what i found in my google search....blue hour refers to that hour experienced between the hours of daylight and darkness when the skies go into deep blue...the term comes from a french expression, l'heure bleue....the time is considered special because of the high quality of light at this time of day....check out this site called bluehoursite.com, great site, very informative and gives you the best times to do blue hour photography wherever or whichever city you are in and some cool tips on how to do blue hour shots....
