It’s already great to see which photo you could take and at which spot you would have to stand, to get the same view, but planning your trip would be even better, if you could see how the spot itself looks like. This is where our new „Behind the Scenes“-feature comes in.

One of the most important things for photographers is to know, when and where the sun is rising or setting. For this reason we have added the exact directions for every spot to make it even easier for you to decide if the spot is good for your planned shooting or not.
