The app Bob mentions is one I first heard of in the context of where/when one needed to be in order to capture the full moon framed by one of the arches in Arches National Park.
I use The Photographer’s Ephemeris when travel planning. If I plan to be on a ship off the coast of Norway in early 2022 or, more likely, in 2023, which day of which month do I target to have the best chance of a dark (moon free) night for views of the Northern Lights? Which day of which month do I target if I want to catch a moonrise over a fjord? The app works great, both desktop and phone versions. Unfortunately it cannot forecast likely weather conditions nor can it help me choose whether to put my planning effort toward the Northern Lights or toward less exotic but possibly more interesting scenics. That is the decision I need to make in the next day or two… stan > On Apr 11, 2021, at 3:26 AM, Bob Pdml <pdm...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Nice surf-shaped cloud in the photo. > > I have an app called The Photographer’s Ephemeris which shows you the path of > the sun, the moon and the Milky Way at any date, time and place so you can > work out when to get the best light etc. It could probably settle that > discussion. > > https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/the-photographers-ephemeris/id366195670 > > I also found it very useful when I was looking at property to buy, so I could > see how the light would work in the places I was visiting. > > On 10 Apr 2021, at 23:04, Daniel J.
