Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 15:52 on 11 December; the latest is 20:45 on 26 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 04:45 on 16 June to 07:31 on 1 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 14m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Pest different

Clock noon and solar noon are 29 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 11:30 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 12:30.

At 47.5°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 31 minutes to arrive: 7 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

Photographers get 60 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.5× the 40 minutes available at the equator on the same date.

Between solstices the sunset walks 72° 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 4 minutes earlier each day this month — 115 minutes from the first of October to the last.

On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 16:38 instead of 17:39. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.

Planning a sunset photo in Pest

Arrive by 17:09. Golden hour opens at 17:24 and the sun is down by 18:05, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 261° 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 18:24 and runs to 18:36, the end of civil twilight and 30m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
