Hi Jorrie,
This is excellent!
Please tell me how you calculated the time exposure with the Canon to be 16 seconds?
Otherwise, an amazing array of pictures, and what an interesting experience!
I am tempted to ask whether the D3 accompanied you because you had a Patrol, but will refrain!!?
Regards,
Chris

Dr Chris
Thanks for the compliments.
The 16secs were detetermined by trial and error.
On the second question, there must be a recovery vehicle on trips like this.
Regards
Jorrie

At Saturday's Bridgestone Fundi Challenge one LR stripped it side shafts and another LR stripped the gearbox and a Jeep rolled!
It is more about the driver then the vehicle because the other vehicles did not have a problem.
