Malham Fissure - a photo on Flickriver

Malham Fissure

            On Friday I found myself in a beautiful part of the world I hadn't explored before.  Phill F was in town and with the afternoon off work I made the 1hr40 journey to Malham.  This place had been on the to do list for ages and once again I can't believe I haven't shot this before. 
I had this shot planned out well in advance and I knew I would need a tool to light the fissure.  I was after a lava type of effect so I took an old tripod leg  2 x @lightpaintingbrushes universal connectors, their orange filter attachment and a torch.  I attached it all together and the telescopic tripod leg made lighting up the crack a breeze.  We started shooting the night stuff at the tail end of blue hour.  This made the process slightly less sketchy as I could still see where I was walking.  Firstly I went behind the tree with my BLF Q8 torch and back lit the tree.  Phill kindly capped the lens whilst I set up the orange element.  Once happy he removed the lens cap and I concentrated the orange light down the fissure all the way back to the camera.  Next I made my way off camera left and side lit the limestone pavement with the Q8. 
Always a pleasure to get out with you mate and some of the later drone lit shots are spectacular but I'll save those for a rainy day.
Back home at 2am and still buzzing off being allowed out to play in the darkness again.

Happy days and roll on the next adventure.
