Hi Simon Just wondering, do you switch the torch on and then off until you move to a new position, just that I can see two shadows from the gravestones as if they were lit from two directions, it must take a bit of running about during the two minutes exposure
Yes the torch is turned on used, tuned off, move position and on again and used etc, how many times and different directions depend on location and practicality etc, some I do from one position, especially if the ground is uneven and potentially dangerous to run around on. This one was done from two positions, hence the shadows, well spotted
Yes there is sometimes a fair bit of running about, its actually surprising what you can do in 2 minuets.
I learnt early on that buying a torch that is easy to switch on/off is a major benefit, some are a bit tricky, yes been there and lesson learned
