Golden hour in Buenos Aires

Golden hour is the stretch just after sunrise and again just before sunset when the sun sits low and its light turns warm and soft. Its length depends on latitude and the time of year, so it is worth checking the exact window for Buenos Aires rather than assuming a flat sixty minutes. In Buenos Aires the evening golden hour is longest around the December solstice, at roughly 39 minutes, and shortest around the June solstice, at about 37 minutes. The higher the sun climbs at noon, the more steeply it drops at the end of the day, so places nearer the equator get shorter golden hours than high-latitude cities in summer.
