2:45pm - how much light do we get in the afternoon?


At 2:45pm, this was taken from the same location and direction as the morning photo.

Without any fancy camera tricks, it is quite dark outside. At 2:45pm, the photo above is pretty much accurate of what the human eye can see. You can maybe make out a bump that is a building. 

Technically, we are in astrological twilight, which means the sun is 18 degrees below the horizon. The other twilights that we already passed are civil twilight (6 degrees below the horizon) and nautical twilight (12 degrees below).

In two weeks, we'll be in full dark.
