Great little drive by Geocache with a hidden surprise.

All my previous videos have been created with my trusty (and more importantly waterproof) GoPro cam., today I also brought along my DSLR.
I expected to get a little wet today but sadly I missed quite a bit of footage due to a misty lens on my GoPro and the batteries giving up the ghost earlier than expected. I did have my DSLR as the secondary cam but its not built for the elements so its usage was very limited.
All the problems aside the quality location made this an enjoyable to trip to find some quality caches.
Once again the music is by Josh Woodward (www.joshwoodward.com).
After spotting a cache from this series being promoted on my local geocaching forum (www.emcache.com) I got my head down to crack the puzzles and set a day aside to hunt out the series.
Overall it was a very enjoyable day, despite living just a short drive from Robin Hood country I have never had the pleasure off exploring it.
I hope to correct the DNF soon so I can seek out the final, look out for part two soon!

Halfway through the summer holidays and we decided to spend a night at a hotel near Llandudno in North Wales which is just over 100miles from home.
Our first day included trips to seaside locations such as Talacre, Rhyl and of course our destination for the night Llandudno.
The first cache featured is located on top of the Great Orme above Llandudno with the second find just a short drive down the hill. The final cache was picked up the following day on our way home.

I’ve been meaning to try out the time lapse feature on my GoPro, the intention was to catch a misty sunrise at a place called Stanton Moor near the town of Matlock, England.
I set my alarm for 3am and was on location at 4am, the sunrise time was around 5.30am but heavy fog put a stop to that. This first sequence shows the fog starting to break around 6-6.30am.
Moving on to the second sequence I relocated to the nearby Nine Ladies stone circle, the intention was to capture the full 360 turn but after multiple attacks by some rogue sheep this small sequence is result.
The third and final sequence was a quick 15min opportunist shoot while I was heading back to the car, ironically its seems to be the best of the bunch.
The GoPro offers some great time lapse features but I think it struggles with low light and an attempt to enhance the resulting image in Lightroom resulted with unacceptable image noise.
