golden light
Honey-colored glow
Golden light is warm, yellowish illumination—the kind that appears during sunrise and sunset, when sunlight passes through more atmosphere and loses its blue tones.
Photographers call this the golden hour.
The phrase evokes nostalgia, romance, or idealized memory: The whole summer exists in my mind bathed in golden light.
It suggests warmth and beauty, often with an elegiac quality.
