Predawn Milky Way shoot + sunrise

What this adventure is about:

During a magic few weeks, after a period of non-visibility due to being behind the Sun, the Milky Way Core starts to reappear, heralding the start of the Southern hemisphere Milky Way season. During this short period, the Milky Way core can be imaged along with the first flush of dawn as it rises in the south east. This provides a unique spectacle each year. Join me at the prearranged location at 3:00 am to set up and shoot the Milky Way Core and be ready for that brief window when the first orange/red colours heralding the new day appear underneath the core. We can then stay on the shoot the sunrise. Later return to a nearby cafe, where, around coffee and breakfast, I will take you through my workflow for processing single image Milky Way shots. Either way you will not regret the early rise for this one!
