A flying visit upto Dartmoor with my bro swiftly drew to an end following a Dartmoor downpour at Nuns Cross Farm.

Andy (andycoswayphotography.co.uk) had rattled off a few shots and the weather was fine, after checking out the various angles on the local cross and outbuildings I got my camera out and almost immediately a few specks of rain started to fall. This quickly developed into a 10 minute downpour that ended the Nuns Cross shoot.

Went on to north Dartmoor as the weather appeared to be clearing but to no avail.

A good day out and spirits kept high through the usual banter of shooting technique, locations and planning the next visit somewhere.

Chanced a visit to Windy Post as I was in the area for work.

Not much light about, plenty of contrast in the sky though for some long exposure work.

Current setup below.

Recently discovered this new iPad app that allows one to check maps and the relationship ofnthe sun within the contours of the surrounding landscape…..perfect.

Not quite, ideally one should be able to set the time to check the direction of the sun but it appears this must be done manually at the moment.

Worth checking out nonetheless.
