Dan-yr-Ogof Far North trip 11/08/2018

Unless otherwise stated, camera, setups, lighting, edits and gallery effects by Tarquin. Modelling and lighting at various points will be Helen Fairclough, Tommy Moore, Thomas "Tom" Smith, and Jethro Pryke.

This trip included a large amount of the cave, including the Upper Series and Great North Road, Far North and Lower Series and Mazeways. The pictures here will concentrate on parts not photographed in those previous galleries.

  1. The river entrance used to be the way that cavers would access the cave after the showcave's opening hours, but it cannot be used for this any more. Still, it is an interesting bit of cave to visit. Modelling by Helen, Pterry the pterosaur, Tom, Tommy and Jethro, lighting by Tarquin, Helen, Tom, Tommy, Jethro and Sol
