Photographers know that the best light of the day usually happens at sunrise and sunset. I’m happy to announce the availability of a helpful utility that lets you use a map to find your location on the Earth and then instantly creates a table of sunset and sunrise times and moon phases.
Choose one of the dozens of pre-set locations or create your own custom location (with precision right down to the street level, if you like). The last location you selected on the map is automatically restored the next time you visit the page making it extremely easy to get up-to-date information.
This is brilliant. I thought you may like to know of a widget for Apples dashboard. It is called Sol by Dan Neumeyer. You can input any city and it will give you the Sunrise/Sunset and Dawn/Dusk Times. It can be found here:

If you choose a custom location (rather than one of the pre-defined locations), you have to set the timezone yourself to get accurate times.
The tool doesn’t seem to be up. Are you going to put it back online?
It’s back. Thanks.
