Golden and blue hour in Innsbruck: all twelve months

Everything derives from the coordinates of Innsbruck (47.2692, 11.4041) and the Europe/Vienna timezone — no estimates. The planning-relevant part: the evening window here swings between 40 minutes in September and 52 in December — schedule "an hour" and you are wrong in both.

Fitting the window into the shoot day

The evening window is the reliable half: the crew is warmed up, the setup exists, and golden hour is the last slot before wrap. The morning window right after sunrise (until 06:06 in June) instead requires camera and lighting to be standing before sunrise — with a call well before 05:18.

After sunset, Innsbruck still offers the blue hour: from 21:37 to 21:53 in June (16 minutes). If you need both looks on one evening, everything from the start of golden hour to the end of blue hour is one continuous window — with no room for a re-rig inside it.

To about one minute (standard NOAA-style solar computation). Not included: horizon shading from buildings or hills to the west — which can genuinely shorten the window at your location.
