More photos from the climbing trip last weekend. The first couple came about while playing with manual focus and various camera settings.

Before the rain

I went into Derbyshire this weekend to go climbing, but the weather was against us.

A small amount of camera shake!

Putting the boards away
Of course, it was raining.

Summer holidays down south

Can you guess where we went?

We recently went to Cornwall, and visited the Eden project for the first time. All I could think about was Biodome.
In the gardens
My camera steamed up in the rainforest biome

Bananas!It was cold in the Mediterranean biome, well, in comparison to the rainforest one anyway...
There was a bank of fridges and fridge magnets in the education building, my boyfriend spotted the names of our two guinea pigs up there...

Slacklining this weekend

Hot air balloon - Sunday was the best day for ballooning for ages

Autumn colours as the leaves start to turn
Slacklining in the late afternoon sun

Pink sky at night as the sun went down.
Testing out a new Norwegian slackline, many thanks to Alexander.

Light fantastic

Poi, on fire and with LED lights inside.
Flail them around (precision and skill required so as not to burn oneself) and make pretty pictures with slow shutter speeds.




Kudos Josh, Ant and Kate for braving the flame.

Living proof
