About Philadelphia Sun Times
Philadelphia's historic setting along the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers provides beautiful sunrise views. The city's colonial architecture creates charming backdrops for golden hour photography.
Best Times for Photography
Golden Hour: The hour before sunset (9:53 PM - 10:53 PM) provides the warmest, most flattering light for photography. This is when the light has a golden quality that's perfect for portraits and landscapes.
Blue Hour: 20-30 minutes after sunset when the sky turns deep blue but artificial lights are visible. Perfect for cityscape photography with balanced exposure.
Seasonal Variations
Philadelphia sun times vary throughout the year. Summer brings earlier sunrises and later sunsets, while winter has later sunrises and earlier sunsets. The exact times depend on your latitude and local terrain.
