It is easier to create more depth in both the foreground and background when taking pictures during the golden hour because camera settings are designed to function best during this time.
The correct answer is: because the overall exposure is more even.
During the golden hour (which refers to the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset), the angle of the sunlight is much lower than during the rest of the day. This creates a softer, diffused light that casts longer shadows and enhances the three-dimensional qualities of the scene.
When the sunlight is less intense and more evenly distributed, the exposure across the scene becomes more balanced. This means that both the foreground and background receive a similar amount of light, allowing for greater depth in the image. In other words, details in the shadows and highlights are visible, resulting in a more dynamic and visually appealing image.
