News, tutorials and photography tips from The Photographer's Ephemeris
We’re excited to announce that Skyfire, the weather forecasting service for photographers, is now available in beta in Photo Ephemeris Web. The Skyfire team has worked hard over the past 18 months, completely rebuilding the back end platform (the new ‘v3’ platform) to support a whole host of improvements, including:
Photo Ephemeris Web 2.8 was just released today. We’ve added a new UI component to list out the key celestial events for the year.
We’ve recently added some capabilities to Photo Ephemeris Web Pro to make it much easier to plan shots which align the Sun, Moon or Galactic Center with a man-made object - typically a tall building.
A couple of updates for November. North America forecasts have been available in TPE for iOS 4.10 for a few weeks now. Next up, we’re adding Europe to v3. This will be available in a forthcoming app update (4.11) which is currently in beta testing.
The team at our sister company Skyfire Services LLC has been hard at work building an all new v3 backend platform this year. We’re pleased to share that it’s going to be launching soon.
New in Photo Ephemeris Web PRO, support for lunar eclipses. With a total lunar eclipse due later this month, we wanted to ensure you’re able to plan for this significant night photography event!
We’re delighted to announce the availability of 3D maps in Photo Ephemeris Web PRO
The Vernal Equinox is coming. As I sit here in chilly Colorado awaiting up to two feet of snow, it seems like spring has made a run for the hills. But celestial mechanics say otherwise!
We’ve just switched over to a shiny new status page, available at status.photoephemeris.com. Status pages show whether services on which apps or websites depend are running correctly or not.
We’re delighted to announce that The Photographer’s Ephemeris is now an official partner of Nature First Photography. I first became interested in landscape photography on moving to Boulder, Colorado from London in 2007. The spectacular landscapes of the Colorado Rockies and the desert southwest were immediately enchanting
As you might have noticed if you’ve visited previously, we’ve overhauled the website. It’s a ground-up rewrite - probably the fifth such since the first version launched in 2010.
Today we’re releasing the 2.1 update to Photo Ephemeris Web. It includes a bunch of new features and refinements for both free and Pro users.
