The Benefits of Dusk-to-Dawn Lights

Dusk-to-dawn flood lights can be used in a range of commercial applications to ensure your business stays adequately illuminated during the night. There are many advantages to installing this type of lighting on your property. Following are some of the best reasons for choosing dusk-to-dawn lights.

Reduce Crime

Businesses use dusk-to-dawn fixtures because they make ideal security lights and help to deter crime. Intruders will think twice about breaking into a well-illuminated property because there is a better chance their actions will be witnessed by passersby and captured on security cameras. For this same reason, dusk-to-dawn lights are also an excellent application for residential yard lights .

Provide Safe Passage for Workers and Visitors

Whether you need to light your building’s perimeter, parking lot or walkway, commercial dusk-to-dawn outdoor lights are the solution. Anyone who needs to access your property after dark has to use lighted walkways to get where they’re going without tripping, stumbling into something or otherwise injuring themselves. For this reason, you also need outdoor garage lights – dusk-to-dawn – to illuminate the exterior of your garage. In fact, every building on your property should be well-lit. By installing outdoor barn lights, dusk-to-dawn illumination of your buildings is assured.

What is twilight?

Twilight is the interval of time during which the Sun has already disappeared behind the horizon line, but still partially illuminates the sky. Twilight is due to the fact that the Earth has an atmosphere in which the light is partially scattered and illuminates our planet even when the Sun is no longer visible.

Types of twilight

There are three types of twilight – civil, nautical and astronomical. They come in succession; twilight is divided into different types depending on the location of the geometric center of the Sun under the horizon:

Civil twilight : 0-6°
Nautical twilight : 6-12°
Astronomical twilight : 12–18°

The period when the Sun falls below 18° is called night.

Civil twilight

This is the brightest phase; most people have her in mind when it comes to twilight. Civil twilight occurs just before sunrise or after sunset. At this time, the horizon line is clearly visible, and only the brightest stars and planets are visible in the sky. In many countries, the law requires that street lights and dipped headlights on cars be turned on at this time.

Immediately after sunset, the sky is still very bright and shimmers with many different colors. To capture the different shades in the sky, it is best to catch the very beginning of civil evening twilight.

Nautical twilight

This is the second stage when the horizon line is no longer so easy to see. The concept itself came to us from the past, when sailors used the stars to navigate. During nautical twilight, you can already see many more stars and determine your location according to their position.

At this time, artificial lighting is already fully illuminating cities, so nautical twilight is well suited for urban photography. If we talk about astrophotography, then you have a chance to catch the full moon on the horizon. This way you can photograph dark silhouettes against the background of the moon.

Astronomical twilight

When it is almost completely dark outside, and the horizon is almost indistinguishable, astronomical twilight sets in. The Milky Way begins to appear in the sky, and even dim stars and planets can now be seen with the naked eye (of course, if the Moon does not illuminate the sky). However, galaxies, nebulae and star clusters are still best observed during complete darkness, when the Sun has already dropped below 18 ° below the horizon.

This is a great time for photographs and observations of celestial bodies. If you can see the Milky Way at your location (check Ephemeris for the time), try photographing this incredible galaxy.

Twilight is when?

The duration of twilight differs in different parts of the planet, so there is no single time for the beginning of twilight. How, then, to determine when astronomical twilight occurs? Use an app or website.

Applications:

Sky Tonight is an advanced astronomy application. In the “Sky” tab in the calendar, you will find detailed graphs with the time of twilight, daylight hours and total darkness for your location.
Ephemeris is a handy tool for planning outdoor photos. It shows the exact time of civil, nautical and astronomical twilight, calculates the time and duration of the golden hour and regime time, contains detailed information about the visibility of the Milky Way and much more.
PhotoPills is a tool for (mostly) landscape photography that allows you to plan outdoor shots. In addition, there are dozens of articles on their website that will be useful to novice astrophotographers.
Sun Surveyor is an application that shows the trajectories of the Sun and Moon in augmented reality. Good for visualizing future photos.
Photographer’s Ephemeris is a map application containing calculations of the paths of the Sun, Moon and Milky Way. It will help to plan a photo shoot in nature, taking into account natural light.

Websites:

Time and Date – On this site you will find detailed sunset and sunrise information for your location.
Sun Today – Shows all information related to the Sun (sunrise, sunset, twilight, noon, and more).

How long is twilight?

The duration of twilight depends on latitude, time of year and weather conditions. The shortest twilight can be observed near the equator, where darkness sets in 24 minutes after sunset; the longest twilight can last about six weeks near the poles.

What is sunrise and sunset?

Dawn (dawn) and sunset (dusk) are certain moments depending on the position of the Sun relative to the horizon . It is customary to distinguish three types of sunrise and sunset. They are determined by dipping the center of the Sun under the horizon line:

Civil sunset / dawn : 6°
Nautical sunset / dawn : 12°
Astronomical sunset / sunrise : 18°

The difference between sunrise and sunset

So what is the difference between sunrise and sunset? They belong to different periods. Sunset occurs in the evening when the sun sets below the horizon and the sky gradually darkens. Dawn comes in the morning, with the sunrise, when it begins to get light.

Is twilight the same as sunrise and sunset?

There is often confusion between dusk, dawn and sunset. In fact, they are completely different events. Sunset and dawn are moments when the center of the Sun is at a certain point below the horizon; twilight is the time interval between these points. For example, when the Sun is 18° below the horizon, this is called astronomical sunset (or dawn), but the interval from 12 to 18° is already astronomical twilight.

What is the golden hour and the blue hour?

There are two more terms closely related to twilight – golden hour and regime time. Let’s look into them.

What is the golden hour?

Photographers use the concept of the golden hour to define the period of day around sunrise and sunset, when daylight takes on a reddish tinge and becomes softer than when the Sun is high in the sky . Golden hour is perfect for filming:

Silhouettes;
Natural scenery;
Cityscapes;
full moon;
Portraits.

When is the golden hour?

Different sources define the beginning and end of the golden hour in different ways. For example, the PhotoPills website says that golden hour occurs when the Sun is between 6° above the horizon and 4° below it. Our [Ephemeris app] uses the same boundaries. But the Photo Ephemeris blog defines golden hour as the period when the Sun is between 0° and 6° above the horizon. The actual boundaries of the golden hour depend on the desired shots, the amount and characteristics of sunlight on them.

What is blue hour?

The blue hour (blue hour) is the period of the day when the Sun has already set below the horizon and the remaining visible sunlight takes on a blue tint . This time is good for those who want to take unique pictures:

Cities;
Nature;
moons;
Wild animals;
Architectural structures.

When is the blue hour?

The beginning and end of the regime time may differ in different sources. The Time and Date website defines regime time as partially covering civil and nautical twilight and occurs when the Sun is between 4° and 8° below the horizon. Other sources, like PhotoPills or the Ephemeris app, define duty time as the period when the Sun is 4° to 6° below the horizon (i.e. civil twilight only). As with the golden hour, each photographer determines the exact period of regime time for himself, depending on the lighting that he wants to get.

What is complete darkness?

We’ve dealt with what happens during twilight, but what comes after of them? The most interesting time for those who like to watch the night sky is total darkness. This is a colloquial term that means the period after the end of the evening astronomical twilight and before the beginning of the morning, when the moon does not light up the sky.

Total darkness is great for observing cosmic objects, especially dim objects like distant galaxies or star clusters.

Use the Sky Tonight app to find out when it’s completely dark in your location. Launch the application, click on the calendar icon at the bottom of the screen and select the “Sky” tab. Sky Tonight will show you the beginning and end of complete darkness and its duration.

What is light pollution?

But even the exact time of total darkness won’t help you see dim stars if you live in a city with heavy light pollution. In a general sense, light pollution (or glare) is excessive or unwanted artificial lighting . The most common examples are:

Street lamps;
Automobile headlights;
Skyscrapers;
Billboards.

Exposure has many harmful effects; within the framework of astronomical observations, one of these consequences is a decrease in the visibility of celestial objects. In the city center, even the brightest stars are barely visible, not to mention the constellations and planets. Excessive light is currently preventing approximately one-third of humanity from seeing the Milky Way in the night sky!

Therefore, articles about stargazing advise you to go as far as possible from the city – the average sky in the city is illuminated 10 times more than usual.

Lighting in the night sky is due to lighting devices that direct light upwards into the sky . Such light is scattered and reflected in the atmosphere, then returns to Earth and blinds us, thereby reducing the visibility of the night sky. This effect operates not only at the lighting device itself – it can be felt even far from the original source.

Read our article to learn more about light pollution and its effects on human and animal health.

Summing up : civil twilight is not good for observing the night sky, but during nautical twilight many more stars can already be seen. The best time to look for stars and planets is during astronomical twilight, and for deep sky objects at night when total darkness begins. By knowing the time of complete darkness, you will get the best time for observing when the moon does not light up the sky. And don’t forget to stay away from city lights, otherwise you’ll only see the Moon and the brightest stars at best.

Our apps will help you in observing the night sky, so download the app that best suits your needs in advance. And don’t forget to turn on the night mode – it will save your night vision!

We wish you clear skies and good observations!

How to calculate the exact moment of sunrise or sunset?

When is sunrise and sunset?

We all know that sunrise or dawn is when the sun rises, and sunset or dusk is when it sets.

But what if we need a more precise time to call?

For example, astronomers at the Royal Greenwich Observatory find it useful to know exactly where the Sun is in the sky when it comes to whether an astronomical event will be visible.

super moon astrology 2016

In cases like this, we need to understand a little more clearly what we mean by sunrise and sunset.

Sunrise and sunset times: an astronomical explanation

Published times of sunrise and sunset refer to the time when The upper limb of the Sun , subject to the influence of refraction, is at the observer’s true horizon at sea level.

This occurs when the center of the Sun 50 arc minutes below the true horizon, the upper limb is then 34 arc minutes (slightly more than the apparent diameter of the Sun) below the true horizon.
