Taken today at Postwick, near Norwich at 16.20.

I claim 1 bonus point for 2 or more. Sadly although there is a truck in shot (which I believe would have counted), the excavator next to it was unmanned. The other one didn’t go anywhere near the truck no matter how much I mentally willed it to…

Sorry @Challenges_Committee, after another clarification from the stewards.

If one of the items on the list happens to be in an FRZ and there are no reasonable alternatives available, are we able to submit that as an entry without breaching the rule above? Or would that technically count as two subjects: both the intended subject and also something within an FRZ?

@rustybarnet

If you decide to obtain permissions to fly in restricted airspace in order to capture one of the first 24 subjects then fine, you have captured that subject. Let’s say it was an isolated church.

You would not be able to submit the same image or another image of that isolated church as your FRZ entry. You will need to photograph something else - and make it interesting, please :slight_smile:

There is no reason not to request permission for two sites within an FRZ to be flown on the same day.

There must be some up that way. This had been on my list before the competition so I it was the first one that came to mind haha.

Was difficult for me too. I stumbled across the one I used accidentally while just moving around google maps. I’m actually pleasantly surprised it’s the item with the most entries.
