Sunset is not the end of twilight
Civil dusk occurs after sunset, while civil dawn occurs before sunrise. These markers help plan a walk or photography session, but cloud, terrain and buildings affect how much light you actually see.
What location is used?
Calculations use central Melbourne at approximately 37.814° south, 144.963° east and a sea-level observer. Conditions at an elevated lookout or behind a built-up skyline can differ.
