Having chosen our spot at Goxhill, three of us arrived early at 6pm in order to park up and wait. The first 50 or so folk were already there, braving the freezing cold wind blowing straight in our faces. This was going to be difficult. We sat in the warm car for a couple of hours and waited until shortly before 8pm and then ventured along the river bank for some considerable distance until there was a clear spot. I think there could well have been 500+ people along the bank. Many tripods, many head torches, much anticipation.
Anyway, here are a few of the images.

Cracking images Nigel – your settings are just the opposite to what the experts advise – you are now my expert advisor
Thanks Paul – trial and error I think!
Nice series Nigel, you seem to have got to grips with the new camera
Thanks Pete – I’m getting there
Great shots Nigel – interesting settings. I usually shoot at around 6 to 8 seconds, f/10-f/13, ISO 160 and they usually come out OK. Might try your approach next time.
Thanks Nick – I usually use a similar approach to you but the wind was straight in your face and blowing everything off course so I decided to use a shorter shutter speed.
