Golden hour
The low, warm light just after sunrise or before sunset. The sun drops to just above the horizon; sky and ground turn orange, the left side of the person lights up and the shadows of the lamp and tree stretch far to the right.

How the movement works
For warm, nostalgic, gentle-feeling images.
- 01Scene 1: a head-and-shoulders figure in front of a horizon at y 150 (head centre x 270, y 78, radius 29 px, no face or hair).
- 02Sun: radius 18 px, from (x 110, y −30) to (x 96, y 136), half hidden by the hills
- 03Colour: sky #FAF9F7 → #FFE8BC at the top and #FFCF80 near the horizon, ground #F1F0EE → #F6DDB0; light on the figure #FFB547, shadow #3E3650
- 04Head: light from the left at about 66°, shadow right of the edge; body lit on the left, shadow on the right
- 05Shadows: from the foot of the lamp and tree to the right, length 0 → 150 px (#DDAA6E); top-right time 12:00 → 17:40
- 06Timing: the effect comes in from 0.4 s to 1.4 s, holds until 4.0 s and is gone again by 4.8 s (one pass = 5 s, cubic ease-in-out (about cubic-bezier(0.65,0,0.35,1)))
Prompt
A person in a field at golden hour: the sun near the horizon, long shadows, everything warm orange.
