Nahhh … I have my ‘money shot’ all planned now!
This is my entry for:
10. A Truck mounted Concrete pump✅️
- Erect and in use✅️ (after they asked me what I was doing and I placated them with my response, I asked if it was raised and pumping and they said yes!)
- Predominately red❌️
- A “Readymix” type rotating drum truck loading the concrete pump✅️

Shame about the colour!
3 points please ![]()
Colin, unfortunately we dont appear to have a truck mounted concrete pump in your photo so we are unable to accept your entry. Heres a few examples of what we are looking for
The good news is you are free to submit another photo for this subject if you manage to find one ![]()
Is this any help?
Rats! There was one of them there, tucked up behind fence boarding. Went back to see it trundling off down the road
Oh well, at least I know what your after now!
A word to the wise - read the subject list carefully and be sure you understand what we are looking for before you set out. This team of frankly over-lenient judges finishes their four days rotation tomorrow; the replacements’ whispered nickname in the bunker is “The bloody awkward squad …”
17. A Quarry, sand or gravel pit
- Still in use for original purpose
- Dragline excavator
-
Drone Scene entry
The south of the site is still used to some extent as a quarry, with the north as a processing plant for their other quarries as well.
Taken today with my AIr 2 as the wind was up a bit and it was raining.
4 points requested.
Hi Ian, unfortunately we cant allow the DroneScene bonus for your ‘A Quarry, sand or gravel pit’ entry. There is already a DS marker added for the same subject just over 200m from your marker.

Had it shown up when adding I would have withdrawn - oh well.
You’re a long way from home for that one! Looks like they still use that dragline excavator as its moved!
Was up north.
I had another one, but your entry (indeed any entry) doesn’t show up when you go to add a location.
Would avoid duplicates if it did.
My bad for not checking the map as browsing.
Gotta love the whole good cop / bad cop vibe the @Committee have got going there ![]()
You mean @Challenges_Committee … not @Committee . ![]()
In my excitement I’ve made that mistake before ![]()
Yes, compared to us the GADC boys are pussy cats ![]()
Sorry, was hastily typed. Making grovelling apologetic exit. ![]()
Frustrating ![]()
Yes, I’ve done it too. I’m also wondering who the ‘over-lenient judges’ are that everyone’s talking about, sounds like another one of those urban myths to me. ![]()
We would advise all competitors that if you intend on claiming a DroneScene bonus for any subject, that you check the DroneScene map before travelling any kind of distance to acquire an image/video ![]()
