Hello all! My name is J.P. and I am new to the photography world and hope I 'll be able to learn quit a bit from this site. I currently own a T3 as my first DSLR camera and extremely happy with the few pictures that I have taken. The only lense that I have right now is the 18-55mm (came with camera) & the 25-250mm. I like all aspects to photography but have currently been doing more sports (since my son just start playing) and car photos. No external Flashes at the time but will be receiving some external light sources, backgrounds, and tripods from a friend who has been doing portrait photos for a few years. Still learning my camera with settings and etc... so I will be doing a bunch of reading on the forum.

Welcome to the forum. You live in a great spot, we visited Colonial Williamsburg and I nearly had to drag my wife away by the scruff of her neck haha Just jump right in and join the fun, you'll get a lot of good info from the different sections.

Sounds like you need The Photographer's Ephemeris (external link). According to that, today it's at around 296 deg., and happens at 8:12 PM.
