    I live not too far from where this is taken and it reminds me of how depressing winters are here. Get up and go to work in cold and darkness, I work in a factory with only artificial light, come home in cold and darkness. I never get any real daylight until weekends. I am so glad that we are in spring now, I am appreciating every warm day and late sunset.

      If not in the tropics then the sun rises pretty much due east and stays high up in the sky during the summer. In winter it rises more southeasterly and stays lower in the sky throughout the day. As can clearly be seen here. Not to mention the fact the day is longer(more daylight) in the summer. Hope that helps!

The earliest sunrise is 04:36 and the latest sunrise is 08:05, the earliest sunset is 15:45 and the latest sunset is 21:20. Winter solstice length is 7h 45m and summer solstice length is 16h 43m.

      If you live either 23.4394 degrees north or south, the sun will get up to 90 degrees on the summer solstice, which means no shadow. This is because Earth is tilted on an axis of 23.4394 degrees, which means on the summer solstice (Jun 21 or Dec 21 depending on the hemisphere), those lattitudes will point directly at the sun.

      For clarification: Civil Twilight is what humans still think of as daylight, as well as early Nautical Twilight. While there might not be night during Summer scientifically viewed, we humans still perceive it as night.
      Civil Twilight is when the sun is between 0 and 6 degrees below the horizon, Nautical Twilight 6-12, Astronomical Twilight 12-18 and Night 18 and below

    I live at about 45 N in the US. This is pretty close to how it is here. It gets light about 4:30 AM on the Summer Solstice, and Dark around 10 PM. Gets light about 8AM and dark by 5PM on the Winter Solstice. It gets depressing in the winter. In the tropics, it is the same amount of day/night year round and twilight is much shorter. I wish it was that way here. But I would have a difficult time living in a place that doesn't have 4 seasons.

      It only gets dark out and goes down to Astronomical Twilight with the sun 13° below the horizon, but the sun has to be at least 18° below the horizon for it to be Solar Night. Also, you are right about how it looks darker on camera than irl. Like legit Idk why the Winter Sunset sky was already towards Mid Blue even though it’s usually Pale Blue and then Mid Blue is Early Nautical Twilight and you can still see just fine outside then, not have everything as a silhouette.

      Also, it would be nice if there was Double DST from 5 weeks after the DST starting until 9 weeks before it ends. Also, it’s better to call it daylight shifting time instead of daylight saving time.

      And I have EDT2 on my watch btw and I type it in the date at the bottom of the cumment, plus Mon/06/14/2021 at 25:19 EDT2 means that it’s technically Tue/06/15/2021 at 1:19 EDT2, but I’m still awake for Monday night ofc, so I just call it Monday and you can actually do that with the time in 24 hour time, plus it clears up the confusion of midnight starting the day (0:00) vs ending the day (24:00), plus 24 hour time just makes more sense in general.
      Time 1 on my watch is EST, time 2 is EDT, and time 3 is EDT2 (obviously it’s not official ofc, but still though), and I can just easily switch back and forth between the 3, plus I have an Ironman Timex Sports Watch btw.

      Tropical areas don’t have a minimal change in sunrise and sunset just the altitude of the sun

      ​@@Electricity667 the sun doesn't get any lower than 66.7° altitude at noon. And for two days every year the sun is exactly 90° above the horizon. This is a surreal experience - seeing something vertical seems like photoshopped.

    Manchester, England, UK is in the same latitude as Edmonton, AB, Canada. So, the length of day and night in both summer and winter in Edmonton, AB, Canada is about the same as it is in Manchester, England, UK.

      With their winter nighttimes starting at like 2 or 3 PM and only ending at about 10 AM, you spend at least one hour in the dark in school, and also come back when it has been dark outside for 1-2 hours. Luckily I don't live in the UK.

    Here in Canada Whitehorse Yukon winter solstice vs summer solstice at 60.8 degrees north latitude.
    Winter:
    Day: 11:09-16:47
    Night: 16:47-11:09
    Summer:
    Day: 4:27-23:36
    Night: 23:36-4:27
    It doesn't ever get completely dark in summer solstice only civil twilight in the darkest hours. In winter it is always dark and even in the daylight hours the sun is only barely above the horizon.
    Welcome to 61 degrees north.
