| love capturing the stars on a clear night, and knowing where to point the camera in the pitch black is critical to capturing a good shot. I am by no means an Astro photographer stacking image and getting crazy star shots, but I do love a nice easy milky way shot. Being able to use augmented reality on a phone to point me in the right direction makes everything 10x easier. I use @photopills when trying to capture these images. Not sponsored, I just love their app and have used it for many years. You can see the light pollution from Los Angeles behind the mountains with a slight glow.
