Looks like you were floating through there, looks like there’s been a lot of foliage cut back and the fly tipping has been cleared. Shame the video doesn’t show the ups and downs. See the autumn colours are nearly over there compared to last week in the Savernake Forest just a few miles away. So used to doing that drive from the other direction 🤯

Nice to see the northern end has been cleared up, if you know what I mean.

Looks like fun, not bothering anyone or annoying the farm animals. Needed my sunglasses for the exposure though, might want to work on that bright sky and dark foreground. Try a neutral density filter or two to even out the exposure balance.

The sunlight is a right pain for the Nextbase dash cam. Have a UV filter on there and that cuts down dash reflections but it's a difficult one with such continual changing surroundings. Also play havoc with the autofocus with the branches flashing by.
