You will spend a few hours out on location learning how find the Milky-way, setup and settings, capturing the Milky-way with a option to add a follow up 1 hour session of edit tips on zoom or Skype (at a extra cost).
All the locations chosen I have been able to capture the Milky-way so I know that weather permitting you'll capture the Milky-way.
Most night shots require post processing to look their best. If you have chosen this as a extra then this will be In the following days.
