Another image of Burbage Brook from September last year… Judging by how thin the negative is I don’t think I adjusted the exposure when I switched from a 0.6ND to a 1.2ND filter.

I’m slowly getting back to posting regularly now the incredibly busy (and tiring) month of December is (almost) over…

This bridge across Burbage Brook in the Peak District is a very popular spot with visitors but it’s still possible to get a few quiet moments…
