Delete large group of files based on timestamp?

I have a directory of about 50,000 jpegs captured from a webcam over a
period of about 45 days. I want to make a timelapse video but I don't want
the photos taken in total darkness or in dusk/dawn to appear in the video.
Is there some command line switch I can use or do I need to look at a script
of some sort?

With that many files doing it by hand is near impossible as it takes forever
for the directory to refresh after doing anything.

Thanks,
T

What names did you use for your files?
