The light outside tends to be softest at early evening.
During the noon and midafternoon, it is still quite sunny and there is a lot of light outside, so it isn't soft. And in the midmorning, the day is getting brighter and brighter, so it isn't as soft as it can be.
During early evening, it is getting darker because the night is approaching, which means the light is quite soft at this time of the day.
