Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 5:20 pm on 27 November; the latest is 6:49 pm on 5 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 5:20 am on 7 June to 6:43 am on 16 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Raipur different

Sunset here is followed by about 22 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Over a year the sunset point slides 51° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

Across September the sunset moves 27 minutes earlier, averaging about 57 seconds a day.

On 27 May and 17 July the midday sun stands at the zenith, 51 days apart. Those are the only two days of the year with no noon shadow.

Planning a sunset photo in Raipur

Arrive by 5:12 pm. Golden hour opens at 5:27 pm and the sun is down by 5:56 pm, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 269° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 6:09 pm and runs to 6:18 pm, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
