We began at the Bwlch, on the VR98 slope, in beautiful sunshine and big fluffy cumulus clouds, and then after a couple of hours drove up the Rhigos mountain pass to Hirwaun Common, with amazing views of the Brecon Beacons and the Black Mountains. All in all it was a fab afternoon.

Paul's flying visit to S Wales
I'm sure Paul will create his own post and tell his own story, but here is the video I created of us flying today.

Nice sharp pictures Steve, well done. Your camera generally holds focus very well on the dot in the sky, is it a GoPro?.
ReplyDeleteHi Russell. I was using two cameras. A hat mounted GoPro Session which I use to film whilst I'm actually flying and, a Panasonic Lumix TZ90 for hand held still and video. The Lumix is new to me and I'm still getting my head around how to use it, but it does have some very useful features.
