Oct 17, 2014 11:12 | #7 Thanks Peter! I'm planning with a friend to shoot the night sky in a few weeks. I hope Long Island will be dark enough. Desertraptor wrote in post #17217689 Well done I'm yet to get a shot of it. Too low on my horizon. From back yard. Chris

Only places like Robert Moses beach, on a good night, you can see the Milky way with the naked eye. Or somewhere out east. The majority of the island is too light polluted.

This trip out west has got me hooked on the night sky and the Milky Way Joe929 wrote in post #17220012 Only places like Robert Moses beach, on a good night, you can see the Milky way with the naked eye.
