don’t need pinpoint locations, use crayons and a piece of paper, pretend you’re back in primary school 
In fact, send the drone up a mile or two and take a picture straight down. Print it out, mark some X’s with your crayons, take a photo of it and post it in the thread. Job done!

Ok Chris managed that thanks, how would I add pins for photos I take
I managed to put a coordinate pin on so I think I would just need to number them ….I’m using an I pad
Nope can only drop one pin ….IT gives me a nosebleed
No need to, from the @Challenges_Committee rules
We will of course carry out spot checks, but this is meant as a fun comp with no prizes. So no, we are going to rely on the honesty and integrity of the membership. We are not big enough to police every picture
Chris is of course correct. It is not a requirement of entry, just handy for everyone to easily see.
I don’t know how to do this on anything other than windose so here is a brief explanantion.
I had the map on screen and press/hold SHIFT+WINDOWS KEY+S. Then using the cursor I selected the area I wanted to copy. Then pasted it into MS Paint, using the circle tool I drew 5 circles and moved them into position. Finally I used the text tool to create the numbers before saving as a jpg
Morning
Just incase some don’t know, if your using I phone / iOS / Mac or I pad, if you have locations turned on within photos, it will pin point your location of the photo when that photo is created, that will be my go to if ok……
Except when your pin isn’t near your postcode
Just update your location in your profile and the pin will move 
( yes, it took me too many minutes to figure that out )
Either demand proof of postcode via a scan of a utility bill, government communication or other official document no more than three months old or let common sense prevail and treat this like the light-hearted bit of fun that it is 
do images have to be captured on or after the 1st? or can we start snapping now and submit the entey after the 1st? 
@DeanoG60 I think it don’t start till the 1st mate, I’m sure I read somewhere is also when you start taking your pictures & throughout that month.

Just a little feedback
I did feel hindered by this 
restriction today. I felt that I could have captured better shots around the 50-60 feet mark. I am guessing the 100 feet AGL is to ensure it is ‘shot by a drone’, but maybe this could be reduced in future to 50 feet? 
No worries if it’s a hard n fast rule. I shall “Improvise, adapt, overcome!”
