Two questions Seanie
Civil or astronomical twilight?

What if the sun is not fully above the horizon?
And are we measuring sunset/rise at sea level?

Technically, twilight is the period between darkness and full light (and the other way around), so, unfortunately, a sunset (and sunrise) would not count.
What if the sun is not fully above the horizon?
