Last night turned into rather an epic affair out with Tei. This location had been on my radar for a few years and last night, we decided was the night. My map reading skills beforehand proved poor at best. I thought it would be easy to get to but after a massive walk across Winnats and beyond we decided we had taken the wrong route pretty much from the offset. We stopped for a coffee and a quick couple of shots of the traffic driving up and down Winnats then headed back from whence we came. A few walls, muddy as anything fields and some rather startled sheep later we arrived here.
I grabbed two shots from here before needing to leave and this is my favourite.
10 shots for the stars (15 seconds, iso 1600 f1.8), 6 dark frames and a single light painted image (f5.6, iso400 and about 1 minute with my torch) combined in Photoshop and Sequator.
I think my phone thought it had been stolen by a marathon runner as the step count was about 26000 for the day which isn't me :)
The shot from Winnats Pass came out beautifully but as this has been in my list for so long it got the top spot.
Always great to catch up with Tei and I think without his getting shit done attitude I would have sacked it off and gone home early. Top man.
