Our rugby club is lucky enough to have been selected to be a Beacon site

Our football club will be part of this

We've got three on our land Lympstone, Exmouth, and Branscombe - i confidently predict that we'll be run ragged by jubille preparation and celebrations and have no time at all to get decent photos

Looks good I plan on covering the one that is on the top of Burton Dassett

I'm going to do the Burton Dasset one too I think, but at a distance. The weather will dictate the distance but I am looking at about 3/4 mile, with a 400mm.

Not quite sure what settings to use. Got my tripod but not done this sort of thing before. Can anyone advise please

Toying with the Monken Hadley one, Nth London, if it doesn't chuck it down, its only a mile or two from me, could be good for a few pics and there is BBQ!

If it stays fine, I might drag the tripod up to the top of the hill at Downs Banks, near to Stone.

Not sure about settings, a bit of trial and error. F5.6 and something between 5 and 10 seconds?
