Find places to shoot. Share how you shot them.

Real locations, real settings, real trips — swapped between photographers who walk. And every photo you post stays yours.

The feed

Starts empty, on purpose.

No stock, no filler. Every frame that lands here will be real work, shot at a real stop by the photographer who walked it. Founding photographers are documenting the first regions now — their frames develop onto this page as they come in.

What it is three things, then the rest
01 Explore · stops & scouts

Places to shoot, and the ones you haven’t yet.

One map, two faces. Stops are where a photographer stood, with the way they faced and the settings they used. Scouts are your own list of shots still to take: a pin, a label, the months it works, and Sundial tells you when it’s on.

Snap the spot. Stood somewhere good with no signal? One photo logs the pin and the direction you faced. Shoot it later and the scout becomes a stop.

Under it all, the layers: rain radar for the next hours and cloud cover as it is now, woodland by kind, and what’s nearby — the café, the car park, the toilets.

02 Sundial live · Cardiff

Say what you’re chasing.

Golden light, true dark, or a flat morning in the woods. Sundial says when it comes, from which side, and which stops face it. Pick one — this is running now, for tonight.

03 Stopovers

A trip, as the route you walked.

Thread stops into a trip: every leg, frame and note in the order you took them. Plan one ahead, or log it as you go. Share the whole route, not a highlight.

And the rest · the back page

The same instrument, the other dials.

Everything below runs off the same stops, the same sky and the same record. Switch on what you shoot for; ignore the rest.

Condition alerts
worth the drive?
watch a stop and an hourly scan scores its next golden and night windows against the directions it’s shot in, cloud included
Night mode
the dial, turned to the dark
true darkness graded honestly, the moon’s movements, and the Milky Way core’s window and bearing more
Tides
low and high water
coastal stops carry the tide: every frame stamped with the water it was shot on, and alerts that wait for low water
Woodland light
flat · workable · harsh
stops ranked by the wood they stand in, and the day’s light read from how diffused the sun is and whether the leaves move more
Assignments
briefs, answered
shooting briefs you take on — a light, a lens, a vantage, a weather — and a photograph answers one
Logbook
the story
your days in the field, private by default; pin an entry to a stop and it becomes a field note, use it in a trip and it becomes the trip’s

Panoramas
3:1, unbroken
shoot wide, we show wide — the frame under this ledger is one, whole
Panoramas · unbroken

Shoot 3:1, we show 3:1.

no square crops · no carousel slices · pannable edge to edge
unexposed · 3:1 the first panorama frame is waiting — Instagram would cut it into squares claim it

Posting to Instagram anyway? One click slices a pano into an ordered 4:5 carousel, your credit in the caption — the crop happens on your terms or not at all.

The charter, in plain English

Your photos are yours.
Full stop.

01 Remove a photo and our right to show it ends the same second.
02 There is no repost button, because no one should be able to pass your photo off as theirs.
03 One toggle burns your credit into every copy we serve — your name, never our brand.
04 Capture data and credit stay with your original. GPS follows the pin you set.
05 Your images never become training data, ours or anyone else’s.
06 Your personal data isn’t for sale, and neither are your images.
07 Location precision and what your EXIF shows are yours to choose.

And when a camera signs its files, we say so: photos carrying Content Credentials wear a quiet “signed at capture” badge — checked by us, never assumed, and free on every plan.

These seven lines are our rights charter, in this order, in this language. Our terms make it binding — and where the two overlap, the charter wins. Hold us to them. Read the full charter
