Sunrise/Sunset Position Calculator

Not sure if this has been posted before but......

A free web application called suncalc.net is extremely useful inj identifying the position that the sun will rise or set on a specific location for a specific date.

Just enter your required location and date (current or in the future) and the application will show you the direction and time that the sun will fall on your desired location at each end of the day.

Very useful for landscape photography where you know that the golden rays have to occur in a particular direction to make that special photo.
Shame it doesn't also predict when a sunrise or sunset will actually occur but then we can't have it all, can we ? !

I am aware of a similar application called photoephemeris.com which you can buy but I haven't tried it because suncalc.net does 'what it says on the tin'.

I've never seen that one before looks useful. Thanks

It does give sunrise and sunset times as well?

TPE is free for desktops and is extremely good. Not having a smart phone I can't comment on their apps for phones/tablets.

Works fine on android

And on the iphone

Not much use in a country where it's always raining!

I suppose it's nice to know where the sun is even though
we can't actually see it!

Thanks for posting this, not seen that one before, might be a good alternative to tpe
