The problem

Photographers need to know exactly where the sun will be to plan shoots, especially for golden hour photography, architectural shots, and landscape images with specific shadow effects.

Everything this unlocks.

Plan shadow directions for architectural shots
Calculate golden hour timing precisely
Scout locations virtually before traveling
