Cheddar Gorge
Cheddar Gorge
Driving home from Wales on Sunday I stopped at Cheddar Gorge to meet up with my friend Scott for sunset.
This is a bit of a long one so settle down for a. nice cuppa...
We met in the car park at the pack of the gorge and took the slog up the hill to the top. Everything was going well until we got to the spot where we needed to set up and Scott had realised he'd lost his phone on the way up. So, off he went looking for it while I carried on watching the sunset.
I got a few shots off and finally, Scott came back, albeit empty handed and pissed off about losing his phone. We decided to call it a day, but ladies and gentlemen, there is a twist...
As we walked back in the fading light Scott stopped randomly at various places and called to his Google assistant on his phone, and thankfully near to the spot where he thought he'd lost it he shouted OK GOOGLE and low and behold, his phone heard him and lit up like a Christmas tree!! It was hidden near a tree and probably wasn't very visible during the daylight, but the wonders of modern technology and the darker light helped us find it with no bother.
So, in the end, it was a bit of a wasted journey for Scott but at least he'd found his phone and the evening wasn't a complete disaster.
Here's the first of two shots I took, I hope you like it.
