I always wondered: is there anyway to distinguish an evening from a morning through the sort of light we see. So Image you see random pictures and don’t know if it’s dawn or dusk. Can you see the difference?
- mikorym 7y agoBased on Raleigh scattering only and one time stamp only the answer is, I think... Maybe. In the morning, if there is less dust, then there would be different Raleigh scattering.

There may be cues, like if it’s a city then the properties of light could reflect the denser pollution it has to penetrate in the evening, but that still depends on location and time of year. I sincerely thought I could tell mornings from evenings by light alone, until I congratulated a friend on a great capture of evening light and he told me the shot was taken in the morning. Did some research after that.
