Seconds after rising over the horizon, roughly half an hour after the Blue Hour, the red spectrum of the sun light prevails for some minutes: time for the Golden or Magic Hour to paint Matterhorn in orange. Starting at the peak - sinking slowly down to the bottom, at the speed of the rotation of our planet.
