Arrive: season, true dark, moon phase, dark skies, weather and the apps I use to plan the shot
Gear & safety: the lens, tripod, lights and cold-weather extras that matter, plus staying safe in the dark
Compose: framing in blue hour, strong foregrounds and nailing focus on a star
Expose: my starting settings for shutter, aperture, ISO and white balance
Develop: where good captures become great photographs
It's the same framework I teach on my night sky workshops, condensed so you can bring it into the field.
