Landscape astrophotography spots with interesting foregrounds and reasonable access?
I want Milky Way or star trail shots with good foregrounds. Any accessible locations?

Some tea estate areas, reservoir edges, and coastal spots away from towns offer good dark sky with interesting foregrounds (trees, structures, water reflections). Access is usually by road or short walk rather than difficult hikes. The key is finding places with minimal light pollution and clear horizons. Many good compositions are possible from accessible viewpoints or even guesthouse gardens on clear nights. Local drivers or guides who know the area can suggest spots based on current conditions and moon phase. Safety at night is important — don't go alone to remote locations.
We got some nice shots from a tea estate viewpoint that was accessible by road. The foreground made all the difference.
