Do I need to mark the sky?
No! Just describe the sunset you want and AI automatically detects the sky in your photo and adds the sunset effect. The AI understands where the sky is versus the landscape, buildings, or other elements.
Can I add sunset to photos taken at any time of day?
Yes! Daytime photos with blue skies work great and show the most dramatic transformation. Overcast photos can become stunning sunsets. Evening or dusk photos can be enhanced with warmer, more vibrant sunset colors. Morning photos can be given a sunset makeover too—though lighting direction may be slightly inconsistent.
Will the sunset affect the rest of my photo?
Yes, in a good way! When you add a sunset sky, the AI typically adjusts the overall lighting and warmth of the entire scene to match the sunset atmosphere. This creates more realistic results where the landscape, buildings, or subjects are lit by warm sunset light. If you only want the sky changed, specify 'change only the sky'.
What's the difference between golden hour and sunset?
Golden hour is the period shortly before sunset (or after sunrise) when light is warm and soft but the sun is still above the horizon. Sunset is when the sun is at or below the horizon with more dramatic colors. Describe 'golden hour' for softer warm light, or 'sunset' for more vibrant oranges, pinks, and purples.
Can I add a visible sun to the sunset?
Yes! Include 'sun visible near the horizon' or 'sun setting on horizon with warm glow' in your description. The AI can add a sun disk to the sunset scene. For best results, mention where you want it: 'sun low on left side of horizon' gives more control over placement.
How do I get dramatic vs subtle sunset effects?
Use descriptive language to control intensity. Dramatic: 'vibrant', 'intense', 'fiery', 'bold', 'vivid sunset colors'. Subtle: 'soft', 'gentle', 'pastel', 'natural', 'delicate sunset'. The AI responds to these intensity cues and adjusts the sunset accordingly.
