Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:47 on 13 December; the latest is 21:45 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 04:37 on 18 June to 09:28 on 30 December.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 17m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Minsk different

On standard time the sun peaks at 12:56, 57 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

At 53.9°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 35 minutes to arrive: 11 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Photographers get 70 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.8× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 85° round to NW. Tonight, W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 69 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 2 minutes a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Minsk

Arrive by 17:21. Golden hour opens at 17:36 and the sun is down by 18:24, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 260° 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 18:46 and runs to 19:00, the end of civil twilight and 35m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
