FILM - cloud
Another scene from my walk from Alwalton to Water Newton. This cloud really caught my eye and I walked until I could get some sort of foreground.
The sky is perhaps darker than you might normally expect, the glass in this lens is rather yellowed due to radiation damage (thorium glass). The lens is radioactive as hell, but it's fine with a clear glass filter over the front of it. On the back the shutter is enough to stop all the radiation from reaching the film. I've worked with nuclear materials over many years so this set-up has been tested with a Geiger counter.
