I didn't count how many I've binned. I would guess I shot about 40, out of them I've got a couple I think are ok and a few more that I'd call "interesting"

Nigel, this is a flippin' great shot. Trailing curtain a terrifically interesting technique. Like a whole bunch and then some.

As we've seen above, this sort of shot often hides a mountain of previous attempts but the final success is always worth the effort. Well done Nigel.
