Re: Sun and moon position plugin (for photography)
Correcting the 180-degree offset in the numerical azimuth readout and properly handling 360-degree azimuths would be very helpful improvements. And using "Inclination" instead of "Altitude" for the sun's vertical angle makes more sense. Looking forward to seeing these enhancements in a future update of the plugin.

@welpixuae Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately there are multiple systems of Azimuth in use. The one I display is measured from south to the west. Changing to north to east could be an option. But some systems then switch this around on the southern hemisphere. So this isn't a straight forward issue.
Altitude is the correct term for the angle between the sun and the horizontal plane, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_coordinate_system.
