hahaha i always shoot shoot shoot then upload to pc, no time look back at it .... gimme a few sec i randomly pick out a few

I understand the best time to shoot Milky Way is between 4:30 a.m. to 5:30 a.m., true?

The time to shoot is depend on earth rotation and position towards the galaxy/Milkyway. Sometimes Milkyway appear as early as 8pm, or as late as 5am. (First time need to call PM early and AM late... )

But a general understanding is at 12am midnight, Milkyway should be directly above u as the sun is directly opposite direction of the earth.

The right question is which month of the year (position of the planet earth) we get the see the best part of the Milkyway.

best time to shoot milky way is without light impact from moon , no clouds , clear sky

for april, i think u can see milky from 3am onward

you no yet inside the wechat group?

im new to wechat, still learning how to use it
normally i use whatapps

Is the a guide where we know when is the best time to see Milkyway at each month?

can use apps called Stellarium to check
bro

Thanks.

As suggested use stellarium to check. PC Mac version free. Android iOS need pay.

Also download an app called moon phase to know the moon cycle.

Moon's reflection is very bad. It can turn night photo to day like effect.

No WhatsApp group?

i also request for the whatapps group , i not quite active with Wechat

anyone shooting in Selangor? would like to join and learn some skills from fella sifu

9th Apr is good day to shoot
