Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:06 on 12 December; the latest is 20:33 on 25 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 03:58 on 17 June to 08:18 on 31 December.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 15m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Astana different

Light lingers for 33 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 9 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 51.2°N buys you.

Photographers get 65 minutes of golden light this evening, roughly 1.6× 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 79° round to NW. Tonight, W.

Sunset drifts 2 minutes earlier each day this month — 63 minutes from the first of October to the last.

Planning a sunset photo in Astana

Arrive by 16:32. Golden hour opens at 16:47 and the sun is down by 17:32, 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 17:53 and runs to 18:05, the end of civil twilight and 33m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.

Golden hour in Astana — times, duration and the best months Morning and evening windows, the next seven days, and how much golden light each month gives you.
