Golden hour, blue hour and why the day length matters
Golden hour is the stretch just after sunrise and just before sunset when the sun sits low enough that its light travels through more atmosphere, losing the blue end of the spectrum and leaving everything warm and long-shadowed. Blue hour follows it, once the sun is below the horizon but still lighting the sky from underneath.
Both are computed here from the sun's actual altitude rather than a fixed number of minutes around sunset, which is why they lengthen as you go north. Near the poles they can last for hours, and in high summer they never end at all — the picker above will show you exactly where that starts.
