Thank you bagpuss; it's a Google Pixel 6A.

It pays to have the camera ready. We asked the other group to leave us a boulder net.

Browne's Hole on Mendip, would have been very pretty originally.. (still is pretty, but just not as nice as it would have been)

One of the biggest un supported natural arches in the UK. The Frozen Deep.

Quite liking this technique as its so easy, quick and simple.



TG Camera on I Auto. Torch behind me for the profile and subject shot. Camera flash off. The setting I got on Auto. f2 at 1/30 sec ISO 800. Yes the camera goes full stop before ramping up the ISO so its not as sharp as it could be. Nor is it shot in Raw as I only do minimal editing. They are end of day shots when folk are tired and dont want to be hanging around. Its not " formulaic " quite just yet nor does it make the image look artificial in any way as some over edited shots now do. Of course a " selfie " but my extended arm is in shadow.

A couple of photographs. The first of Column Passage in OFD1, taken the other day with a 35mm SLR (200 ASA Fujifilm if you're particularly interested), and the second of Notts 2 taken on my phone. I think both images show some limits of each of their technologies; the film pic being swayed green (I'm chalking that up to the warmer colour temperature of the various headlamps deployed as lighting), and the noticeable noise in the Notts 2 image when blown up to anything larger than a phone screen (Im thinking due to the tiny sensor size - it does look great on a phone though!)

I used lots of Fujichrome (before digital) and it was always green compared to Kodachrome.

Do you think a collective of tissue moths is a sneeze?

It pays to ensure that your nuts are tight before committing........ Somewhere in NW Scotland, last week. Cheap secondhand Chinese spy phone.
