Since almost two years im having bad luck with trying to get a milkyway shot, because either clouds messed it up for me or the situation wasnt right to go out of town. The problem is that i have at least a 2 hour drive somewhere to nowhere to get acceptable dark skies and a cloudless night in switzerland is not happening every day... But i finally got a few ones that i really like  My first milkyway shot:Congrats! I love the light in the foreground and the thin clouds. Lovely shot. http://www.virginie-bitterlin.com

Had to wait about 2 hours until the clouds went away to let me capture the MW. First i damned the clouds but i think they added quite a bit to the shot. Sony A7RII | Sony A7S

Eddie xpfloyd lookalike  More info Post edited over 7 years ago by Eddie. | Nov 09, 2015 13:58 | #2705 I asked this elsewhere on POTN but this is probably the better place to ask. When shooting sunrises and sunsets I use the photographers ephemeris so that I can check the position that the sun will be in at those times depending on the time of year etc. Leica M11 | Leica Q2 | Sony α7RV

When shooting sunrises and sunsets I use the photographers ephemeris so that I can check the position that the sun will be in at those times depending on the time of year etc. Is there a similar thing for the milky way? I.e. there's a location I want to shoot a milkyway photo so that the milkyway is rising out of the top of a pointy mountain but I have no clue how to calculate when the milkyway will be in the correct position. Is there a website or app that can tell me this? EDIT - someone in the sony forum helped me out. This is what I was after - http://www.photopills.com …ng-2d-map-centric-planner Im using photopills! Althought the only time i could have made use of it (first time ive shot the MW) i had no battery left on my phone hahaha. However, for my luck i knew that here in switzerland the Mw will be in the east and luckily i had a compass Sony A7RII | Sony A7S

Really want to integrate this sort of thing into our wedding photos. A wedding blogroll with a final milkway landscape shot would be awesome. We need the right venue in the right locations first!
