All that was left of the lobster...
So, back to the camera traps and the Pine Marten...
I was keen to get images of the forest area across from the river. As you can see from the photos below it was carpeted in thick moss and the whole area was like walking on a sponge.
The vibrant green is what drew me to it and in a couple of places, a mound of the stuff and a fallen log, seemed like good places to try the trap.
Each took a few nights to get it right but I think the photos are worth it. The setup with the mound required four flashes, two positioned to light up the foreground, one as partial backlight and a final one for the background.
