I managed to make it out a few times over the Summer, sometimes alone, sometimes with my ever-understanding family.
I've managed to get clear skies down on the South Coast of the UK and also a lovely night shoot on the Surrey Hills. This is the first time I've tried to capture the Milky Way from so close to home. I was worried the light pollution from the South Coast towns of Portsmouth and Southampton would kill any chance of seeing the MW, but the images turned out OK.
