Most weeks we have been working away at Vurley. Now with CO2 at depth we are restructuring the entrance series. So if you were at HE you would know we are around 150m deep. Not bad in three years.
If you saw the Mendip Photo exhibition you would have seen my giant collages for Shatter Cave and Withyhill. Now I have compiled another big collage for Reservoir Hole. A difficult task reducing the images from over 1,000 to the 99 required for the collage. All had to be horizontal format so many vertical images have had to be edited. The short list was around 150 which I can, if acceptable to all, run as a pure photo thread here. So no text from me just images via Photobucket. Yes Photobucket and I have renewed our acquaintanceship and I now pay for the largest packet of which with some 20,000 images hosted only fills %3 of my limit. I think that is about ?100 pa but hey ho nothing comes cheap. Many images go on other forums for other hobbies. So cost wise getting where I want to be to use the collages at talks and events is not cheap either. ?80 for the collage then the dry mounting and framing securely at over ?150. Maybe I can recoup a bit through talk fees. The company I use are in Berlin and supply superb reproductions of images.

This is a poor screen shot of the collage.
I will run the images a batch at a time and the odd " like " might encourage me to continue. No moaning about looking at them on mobile phones please.
