Understanding Twilight & the Golden Hour

Nautical twilight follows, when the sea horizon becomes hard to make out. Astronomical twilight is the darkest stage, after which the sky is fully dark and the faintest stars appear. The same three stages occur in reverse before sunrise, as dawn.
Sofo-Birnin-Gwari sees its golden hour today around 06:09-06:50 and 18:20-19:01, framed by the blue hour at 06:01-06:09 and 19:01-19:09. As the sun's arc shifts with the seasons, these windows move with it.
