%X Peter Binns (1917-2002) played a significant role in the reorganisation of British Caving after the Second World War. In 1934 when he was just sixteen, he stayed in the shooting hut on Leck Fell with his friend Lawrence Buckle for a week, when they helped Simpson explore and survey the upper reaches of Pippikin and Nippikin. Peter became a fully fledged member of the BSA, and he is probably best remembered for the surveying and photography trip into the Hensler's system with Monty Grainger, Fred Davies, and Peter Longbottom the day after it was discovered, when he assisted Grainger with the surveying. Peter features in the accompanying iconic picture of the twin stalactites in the Hensler's Master Cave taken by Fred Davies.
%X BCRA is grateful to Peter's son Michael for scanning Peter's material and making it available to the BCRA Online Archive. He was happy for the photos to be used in a non-commercial way by the BCRA and any other speleological organisation for educational and research purposes, but requested that the source be acknowledged. Sadly, Michael died in May 2022.

%T BCRA Photo Salon
%X Due to the cancellation of the 2022 Hidden Earth conference (and thus also the prestigious Photo Salon competition, our regular source of underground photography for the centre pages), an open call was put out for interesting photos, and a selection is presented both here and on the front and back covers for your enjoyment.
