Top Tips
- Clouds can ruin your night really
quickly, so keep track of the weather. - A new moon is ideal for Milky Way
photography, although it isn’t required.
Use an ephemeris to keep track of
the moon cycle. - Have a plan B when photographing
the night sky as the conditions can
often be unpredictable.
