Golden and blue hour in Poznan: all twelve months

Everything derives from the coordinates of Poznan (52.4064, 16.9252) and the Europe/Warsaw timezone — no estimates. The planning-relevant part: the evening window here swings between 45 minutes in March and 64 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 05:26 in June) instead requires camera and lighting to be standing before sunrise — with a call well before 04:30.

After sunset, Poznan still offers the blue hour: from 21:46 to 22:07 in June (20 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.
