The coal stockpile is almost exhausted so I got myself along yesterday to get some pre shutdown pics.

Cracking shots - I went over to Trent Locks the other day and walked over to where the railway tunnel is in the hope to get some decent shots of the power station but there is a little bit of a hill and a lot of trees’ in the way so I didn’t get the shots I had hoped for. I need to find a better location to fly from
This was as good as it got for me -

Great views of the cooling towers. It’s very sad the govt are so shortsighted to get rid of cheap reliable and efficient power stations to replace them with hundreds of square miles of useless inefficient and ugly wind farms.
OK your link takes me to the Dronescene map where you have an entry, I’m from a generation that was more used to licking a stamp and communicating by letter (too expensive these days)! and am not au fait with all the ways of using the Grey Arrows website. I think I was sent a how to lesson when I first joined, but thats all a distant memory and I don’t know how to get back to it.
Am I supposed to copy one or all of my pics to the link, or just click a button to add to a count of people who have flown there?
Also is it possible to filter the dronescene map in descending order to show the most popular places?
The “I’ve flown here too” was a simple suggestion that you might click on the button on the page that link took you to …
That has relevance to …
… since it’s used to generates this …
… which can be found here.
Your photos can be posted to several places …
- In the thread relating to the location : Ratcliffe Power Station - Added to Everything Else in East Midlands
- In the general thread of drone photos : The Daily Photo Thread
- Or you can create your own thread in Photos by Drone should you wish
- Or any/all of those
