Nature Journal: Sunset

Date: Jan 20, 2015
Time: 5:18pm
Location: Steamboat Park, Pierre, SD
Temperature: 36°F
Wind: ~10mph
Skies: Isolated Cumulus w Broken cirrostratus. Contrails present

According to the website timeanddate.com, sunset for Pierre on Jan 20 was at 5:34pm. I took the pictures below at 5:18pm. The first picture demonstrates the length of my shadow just before sunset and the second to the show the sun about 16 minutes before setting.

I didn't look directly at the sun, even through my camera, which made taking the picture interesting. I didn't know what I was going to get in the picture.

What is your preferred site to get astronomical, seasonal info?
