The same three stages occur in reverse before sunrise, as dawn.
In An Muileann gCearr today, the morning golden hour runs 06:19-07:27 and the evening golden hour 19:28-20:37, with the cooler blue hour around 06:04-06:19 and 20:37-20:51. These warm and cool light windows drift through the year as the sun's path changes.
