We are certainly not alone in switching time zones twice a year.
Most of North America and Europe observes Daylight Saving Time, although only small parts of Asia, Oceania, South America and Africa take part.
However different countries change their clocks on different dates.
For example in the USA the switch takes place on 2 November this year, while in Egypt it happens on 30 October.
One benefit of an earlier sunset is that it might be easier to get out and capture it on camera.
