I'd never seen it before Monday... Wanted to do something with the last of the holiday so headed there as it's only an hours trip. Pretty cool things tbh!

Was quite annoyed though, i'd chucked the wrong size ND filters in my bag... Wanted to try and get some nice long exposures but that failed!

What is that Chip? By the name "Lady" I'd suggest something to do with Ladybower reservoir?

Yea, it's at Ladybower One of the overflows or 'plugholes' as they're commonly known! Quite a rare thing for a reservoir.

So next time it tanks it down, would I be right in thinking that if I head over there I'll probably catch a glimpse?

I used a SnapOn Inspection Light.

Let me know what you think

What lighting did you use?

the lighting seems pretty uneven. on the white car, the back is very dark compared to the front, and dissapears into the black too much.

The back of the orange car is also pretty dark too, and the front too harsh.

lighting the back as well as the front would certainly even it up / create for a more pleasing image - IMO. Lighting with off camera lighting, and standing your lights further back would probably also help to avoid the light only being in a concentrated area.

Cheers for your comments I used an inspection lamp using the light painting technique. Due to my off camera flash sender breaking.
