Good thing I just watched this video. I was going to go to Joshua Tree for a sunset later and shoot a huge joshua tree I found, but after doing all these steps the sun won't be behind the tree like I initially wanted until May of next year lol

[@PhotoPills]

Lol!

[@eamonncullen5220]

Hi Rafa, once again thanks for another great tutorial video; taking complex things and making them simple, or at least 'doable'. I was thinking back to your Webinar with Josh Cripps. When shooting into the sun, [on LiveView only] at sunrise or sunset, should I use a 10-Stop or 15-Stop ND filter, to prevent the sun getting horribly blown out, with no detail? Does a 3-Stop Reverse ND Grad filter in combination with the 10- or 15-Stop ND Filter help? Thanks once again for all your help & support, Eamonn

[@PhotoPills]

Hi Eamonn! To photograph the Sun disk we always use a Solar filter to protect the camera. Josh used a 10 stops filter. But the more density the better :)

I have developed a plan using Photo Pills. I will be in Palo Duro Park in Texas on September 16th. The sun and the full moon set at 7:51 and 7:52 respectively. They are 7.8 degrees apart. I plan to use the lighthouse as the foreground. Any thoughts of how far away I should be to capture all three? I am going to arrive earlier that day so will not have a whole lot of time to use the night AR feature but I will use it to try to perfect the shooting spot. Thanks!

[@PhotoPills]

Hi Rick. That's a new moon and not a full Moon. It won't be visible. It's impossible to have a full Moon 7.8º apart of the Sun. The full moon is always at 180º apart of the Sun. That's the reason is full, because the light comes from the front. When the Moon is close to the Sun is new Moon, as the light of the Sun only reaches the face of the Moon we cannot see.

[@MDDkv]

Can PhotoPills take into consideration in the planning weather conditions that could potentially impact the visibility of sunrise / sunset due to overcast for example? Or have to check weather apps, although they can only show 10 day forecast. Thanks in advance.

[@PhotoPills]

We'd love to have weather integrated. It's in the to do list. Now we use other apps like Windy :)

[@MDDkv]

@@PhotoPills Thank you for the confirmation - hopefully we will see a weather integration in the near future :). I am relatively new user of the app and the more I use it, the more amazed I am by it - it's a brilliant tool!

[@PRAXYBEATS]

Why elevation at 0 degrees. 0 degrees means that it is just parallel to horizon, right?

[@PhotoPills]

Yes, it means you want the sun at the horizon.

[@arnoldbihasa]

Awesome tutorial. However I still don’t get how to search the sun for a sunrise. The results only give me the sunset. Is there a setting I need to select for the results to show the sunrise?

[@PhotoPills]

That's because at west you'll only find sunsets (or moonsets). The sun rises due East, search on East and you'l find sunrises :)

[@davesdatahut]

I'm having a hard time figuring out some strange results I'm getting in Photo Pills. I'm trying to shoot the sunset through the Brooklyn Bridge in lower Manhattan, New York City, and the app tells me that elevation zero is occurring in the middle of the afternoon around 130 pm at the end of November. That can't be. What might I be doing wrong? Thanks!

[@PhotoPills]

Hi Daves! We've seen your email. We'll get back to you soon :)

In my Cel Phone Android Samsung Note 10 lite this screen do not show up.

[@PhotoPills]

Hi João. What screen?

[@joaopedrocaminha5676]

@@PhotoPills In step 3 the secondo screen, at 2:50 minute. Thanks for your attention.

[@PhotoPills]

@@joaopedrocaminha5676 On Android you have Sun and Moon. Just tap on Sun. We didn't implement the other options because they are not really useful. Thanks

[@joaopedrocaminha5676]

@@PhotoPills Thanks!

[@PhotoPills]

@@joaopedrocaminha5676 Yes, you have it. You are probably using Android and you have Find > Sun and Find > Moon. That's the same than on iOS doing Find > Sun/Moon > At azimuth and elevation. The Find at azimuth only was useless and we'll remove it in a future update on iOS.

MY POINT IS WHY NOT A PERSON WHO HAS A CLEAR ENGLISH ACCENT , THE ACCENT OF PRESENTER IS VERY DIFFICULT

[@PhotoPills]

Hi! Because we're just a couple of friends working on PhotoPills... everything is homemade! :D

[@vicky197805]

@@PhotoPills it is a very good app for a homemade version it will be a much better app if you can include exposure meter for all kind of condition not just for long exposure shots😊😊
