Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:21 on 13 December; the latest is 21:10 on 24 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 04:11 on 17 June to 08:54 on 30 December.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 16m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Samara different

On standard time the sun peaks at 12:30, 31 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

Light lingers for 35 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 11 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 53.2°N buys you.

The shallow approach angle at 53.2° stretches this evening's golden hour to 67 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Between solstices the sunset walks 83° across the horizon — SW in midwinter, NW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

Sunset drifts 2 minutes earlier each day this month — 70 minutes from the first of September to the last.

Planning a sunset photo in Samara

Arrive by 17:28. Golden hour opens at 17:43 and the sun is down by 18:28, 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 18:50 and runs to 19:03, the end of civil twilight and 34m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
