Golden hour, blue hour and where the sun and moon rise
Golden hour is the sun between 6 degrees above the horizon and 4 degrees below it; blue hour is the sun between 4 and 6 degrees below, the definitions timeanddate.com and PhotoPills use. Directions are degrees clockwise from true north, where the sun’s upper edge and the moon’s center cross a flat horizon. A blank means the sun does not reach that height, or the moon does not rise or set, on that date.
