I wonder whether it was a self portrait, perhaps a sketch, perhaps a watercolour... perhaps.

Unsure as to the reason for the above. :unsure:
None of your suggested mediums; just finishing off the the survey of the North by North End Pot / Lean Bean Connection - whilst in the sensible world, we should have been in the pub.
Equipment - Second hand Huawei P30 Pro from ebay @ around £100. Nothing else.

Why you have to be very quick. I was setting up and he turned and laughed at something. I had a couple of seconds to react hence its not perfect. I thought that his light would blow it out. I was lucky. Only light LED mini torch. TG6 I Auto.

Falling drops. Cropped from the original and worked a bit on the contrast. An experimental shot with the tiny torch only to illuminate the platform at 20m depth though 5m below the viewpoint. Hoping for a water reflection. The drops were pure luck again. The TG 6 giving F2 . 1/13 sec. 800 ISO. Flash turned off.

Was much found on the other side and did it go, I know the location, not been there for a few years.
Quite a lot of big stuff, although to get to that, there was an even longer bolt traverse across a huge drop, on what is without doubt the most friable rock/clay I've ever had to contend with, even up there. Everything collapsing around us, including false floors giving way at the lightest contact. Big stuff going up and down, but ultimately no way even remotely possible to any further reaches of 'lost' ground. I don't think that there is any chance of it appearing on any YouTube explorer channel in the foreseeable ;)

Thanks, from plans I estimate that from the Limonite flat it's about 275m to the forehead in that area, does that tally, do have an idea of far along you got?
