The same three stages occur in reverse before sunrise, as dawn.
In Al Başrah al Qadīmah today, the morning golden hour runs 05:11-05:58 and the evening golden hour 17:36-18:23, with the cooler blue hour around 05:02-05:11 and 18:23-18:32. These warm and cool light windows drift through the year as the sun's path changes.
