The 8th of January saw another visit to Kemble, near the source, starting at Lyd Well and heading downstream under the the A429 bridge and along the river, now filled with small green plants. It was another grey sky but this did create very soft lighting. Returning to my car it was nearly dusk and I entered one of the two tubes that form a curved tunnel for the river to flow through beneath the A429. There were long, think white spiders webs dangling from the roof so I set up my camera on a tripod and painted the tunnel with a powerful torch during a time exposure.
