Shame there isn't one close enough to you.

Great to meet you @ChrisR. Pleased to hear you got home safely. I much admired your dedication in waiting for the sun out Cave Dale shots. And your gazelle like darting over the hills for the said shot. You put @FishyFish and I to shame on many occasions overtaking us on the hills!

It's been a great day and lovely to meet you all The gang ascending Cave Dale... The 6x17 camera had been returned to a vehicle for safe keeping as @sirch had masterfully demonstrated how to use it :)

Bacon cob scoffed. Next stop Castleton.

My number pm'd

I was thinking the same being as I haven't met any of you, but then I thought I'll just wave my TLR in the air and wait for you all to come flocking!

I've been to Castleton many times over the years. I'd find enough to photograph in the village and the immediate surroundings as @sirch suggests. It's all in walking distance but any folks with mobility issues may find some of them a challenge. I'm happy to be Castleton based for the day as...

B&w and a sh**e old Nova is just my thing.

That's great, I was thinking about this at the weekend. I'll see you all there. I'll be going home in the evening.
