    Sheesh! Who stole the topseal?

    I would happily take my Subaru or mountain bike through there but nothing else in my garage would go near that.

    You need to come over to the dark side and put an Adventure Bike in your garage then!

    I remember one particular trip over there, Whitetrash was all of 15 or 16 driving dad's 1967 Chev Impala over there I was in the middle in the front and most of the corners over there the front of the big old bitch was hanging well off the side. Probably one of the scariest drive I have ever been on in a car. Its a long way down.

    You may take them... but not reccomended at speed. In a lot of places, it is a long way down. And... in places, where it isnt a long way down... if you go down, it'll be bloody hard to get back up again. Even on foot.

    I went through yesterday, the grader had been through.../ I passed it near the Duntroon end. It was like driving on ball bearings... Naseby to the Danseys Pass camp took one and a half hours.

    Sorry dude, I've been a photographer for a living for the last 22 years, and I would call 6 seconds a faily long exposure.... It was high ISO, but long exposure too

    Lol, sweet as... but it would be the iso that makes the grainy apperance...

    just to be nit picky... one of those days.

    Just to be nit picky...... it's actually a thing called the DRO that's caused the aggressive grain. The high ISO does cause a certain amount of grain, but is accentuated by the Dynamic Range Optimisation setting which lightens up the dark areas (in this case most of the scene ) and adds about 500% to the effective grain....

    Can't see the stars due to the high DRO noise

    You doing the DRO on or off camera?

    Oops, didn't mean 4145, should have written 4154

    DRO at highest most extreme setting, In camera, Sony A700 ( just what I had with me at the time of the wee rollover :-)
