A ride with my dad, so operating within the limits of a flat and sensible route!

Wow, camera's are much better with low light these days!

I had a really bad one a few years back...

iPhone 12 Pro, I think it was about a 3 second exposure?

This was a 10 second exposure with the same camera.

Yeah, my newer dark pics are much better.

The church and cranes claim to be 1/15th of a second. The church must have been floodlit but the cranes are just ambient London light circa 11.30pm.
The windmill was out in dark countryside, just a featureless, almost-invisible silhouette against the stars at 1.15am.

I illuminated it with a cheap bike torch from 110 metres away and i'm sure it was a long exposure, but the photo properties say only 1/3rd of a second.

Aha, it also says an ISO of over 15,000 and my phone only goes up to ISO600, so clearly it's done some automatic post-processing.

Was probably a 3-5 second exposure. The cranes too, now i think about it.

I had three squares totally surrounded at Calverton that have been bugging me for ages, so I decided to go get those, then got some more as well. It was a bit lumpy up there, luckily it was quite flat to Long Eaton and then flat after Calverton.

Found a cracking cafe in Lowdham

Another imperial ton to grab 17 squares up on and above my northern edge total now 6504 max cluster up 18 to 3454

On the warm up to yesterdays F11/10 TT I took a wonder randomly down a few streets on the off chance I'd get a tile, I got one but with a little planning I could have easily got more. I doubt I'll be there again though most folk get a pb there but I was over a minute down on mine, I didn't fancy the potholes traffic and the steep downhill in combination with my erratic post chemo hands and sat up for most of it. The tile was the only bonus 🙃

@HLaB That’s my neck of the woods! I did see a few riders with numbers on their backs (including one tandem) warming up while on the road through Aston Clinton yesterday but didn’t know what the event was. Should have guessed it was a TT as there were a number of disc wheels amongst them.

I was near there this morning - early. Had to drop my wife off at Stansted. Got caught out by the road closure at Waddesdon too 🤦‍♂️
