"As one approaches Ely on foot or on a bicycle, or perhaps in an open car, the cathedral dominates the picture for miles around ... and offers from everywhere an outline different from that of any other English cathedral"

Nikolaus Pevsner, 1954

Running a bit later with this weeks submission to the 52. Thursday/Friday is my target period to take the shot for the week.

Lots of trial and error with this shot. An urchin test collected from the beach a couple of weeks ago, and a piece of bog wood that probably detached from the preserved peat buried under the sand.

Lighting is provided by a cheap torch from the right of camera. No fill. As the project continues I'll have turns at getting more creative lighting film shots.

f/8 & 1/250, 90mm with the No.2 extension tube focussed to give maximum magnification, according to the table in the manual this is 1.42x

I'm picking backwards and forwards through photos from the last few weeks. This is another one from a trip to Thornham and a walk acround the marsh and across the dunes to the beach at Holme.

A view across to Großmeicking from the Donau-Ilz-Radweg a cycle/footpath that follows the route of a former branchline.
