So Milky Way shots are hard to come by and the Summer constellations aren't as interesting as the Winter ones.
One target I've been trying to capture for a couple of years is Noctilucent Clouds. They only appear in May/June and only between about 45 and 55 degrees Lattitude.
Even then, you never know where/when they will appear.
After a couple of nights of seeing everyone else's shots (from as far South as London and even Stonehenge), I headed out at 3am with my son to see if I could capture them over Surrey.
Here's the results... quite a nice display and much higher above the horizon than I was expecting...
What are Noctilucent Clouds?
