The Milky Way stalking is full on.
I have reached the point where the well documented dos-and-don’ts of Milky Way photography have been ditched. “Only shoot during moonless nights”. Nope. “Only shoot during clear skies.” Negatory.
In these images, the moon was shining, the clouds were floating and the Milky Way still emerged, albeit less so in the spotlight.
Waiting for the perfect conditions just wastes precious time. There is so much celestial beauty to be had if you just bend (or in my case, break) the rules.
