Le Tour, in the Chamonix Valley, France.

There were folks snowboarding here today, and the weather was fantastic. Snow rocks… :)

Great foggy layer across Sussex tonight. This is looking out from Ditchling Beacon towards Burgess Hill.

24sec exposure… Thankfully I just happened to have my trusty Benbo Trekker (tripod) in the back of the car! I used a bulb exposure on a self timer due to the lack of cable release however… :)

Reculver

Looking out from Reculver, towards a wind farm. This is where Barnes Wallis tested his invention, the Bouncing Bomb, famously used by the RAF’s 617 Squadron during "Operation Chastise" (more commonly known as The Dambusters).

This area of the UK has lots of family connections for me, as indeed do the exploits of 617 Sqn too.
