Position of the Sun

Note!

This program does not claim to be astronomically correct. It is only meant to be used for making accurate simulations of sunlight in the 3D program Blender.
 The automatic time zone setting has an accuracy of ±55 km (34 miles), so it may have to be adjusted manually near time zone borders. Also, time zones may have changed after the program was written.
 The color of the sunlight is just a suggestion, as it is more than the Sun’s altitude that affects it.
