Well, I have been sort of sucked into this project.

I saw a photograph on the BBC website of somebody with a full plate camera who had made a black and white, plate photograph of a climber on Cam Crag. The full plate camera immediately sparked my interest as you may imagine. I ran numerous searches which came up with a report on the Guardian website mentioning Cam Crag and the shadows which it projects on the screes.

The links are in my first post of this topic.

I would like to see and capture these shadows but first I need to identify Cam Crag. I have seen numerous photo's of it taken from the top looking down but none from the bottom looking up.

This is the link to the original BBC item which aroused my interest originally. I don't like using their images directly I think it's better to provide links to other photographers images.

The opposite shore of the lake below in the photograph is about where I took the star trail shots. With a little care and some triangulation I should be able to pinpoint Cam Crag from those images.
