Well thank you fella

Nice shots there fella, cheers for sharing
I must admit, the idea of crawling into a slimy, dark culvert is becoming increasingly attractive lol

-RR

Well we went to look at it and it was sort of "Shall we? Nah!!, Hmmm, Nah!!! ,Oh stuff it!!!, lets do it!!"

And tbh, I loved it, deffo going for some more, something a bit better next time I think!!

sweet, may try to do one in my area sometime

Very interesting great pics.

Nice one! Fantastic shots fella!!

Great shots mate! That last one makes it look as if the water is up to your neck

Nice pics there nelly!
First caves now culverts ha ha

Fair play Nelly how funny was that haven’t laughed so much in a long time
Great shots mate, will be looking Out for Paul's comments.

The Culvert was swarming with nats trying to eat us alive so our hoodies up and I put a face mask on.
As we were exiting the culvert splashing through the water some poor guy came cycling across the bridge above He glanced down, there’s me still all masked & hooded up all dressed in green like a troll.


The look of panic and confusion was priceless the bike went into a mad wobble and he nearly stacked it into the side of the bridge.
Then he peddled off at a speed any cyclist competing in the Tour de France would have been proud of

If my camera saw that much water, it would be walking the other way lol.

Fair play though, I like the last shot, looks like your swimming in it lol

brillant find and brillant piccys thanks

I think bloody good camera insurance is the answer

Love the photos but i would worry about creeping forward and dropping down to an unknown depth. I know the area well as i work in the area.
