Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:44 on 6 June; the latest is 19:05 on 16 January. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 05:28 on 27 November to 06:55 on 5 July.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 6m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Saint-Denis different

It takes roughly 22 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

Over a year the sunset point slides 50° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 11 minutes later than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 22 seconds a day.

Twice a year the sun passes directly overhead here — on 17 January and 26 November — and vertical objects cast almost no shadow at solar noon. The next one is in 7 weeks.

Planning a sunset photo in Saint-Denis

Arrive by 17:34. Golden hour opens at 17:49 and the sun is down by 18:19, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 262° 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 18:32 and runs to 18:41, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
