The Mach Loop - 7th October 2010

This could well be my last trip of the year to LFA 7 and if it is it wouldn’t be a bad one to end it on. The weather was problematic with a near gale force wind that wouldn’t relent through out the day, a lot of cloud cover and when the sun did break through for short periods it was very strong. This made for difficult light metering but this is one of the reasons I made to swap to Nikon so it proved to be an excellent test.
