  • Clock showing ten o’clock

It’s a clock tower - check
Showing 10 o’ clock - check
It’s dark so we infer it’s 22:00 - check
And the Drone Scene entry is within one kilometre of others on the map - the dock tower, the ice house but it is the first entry for the clock tower - check

4 points total.

18. A Waterside Pub (no road between the pub and the water)

We do not get red buses down here - so if he wants to drive to the SW in it, he is welcome.

Can’t guarantee a warm welcome - although it is warm currently :joy:

Either you had a slow shutter speed Ben, ND filter perhaps, or that car on the bridge is speeding. :slight_smile:
2 points!

CPL filter! And thanks!

I guess you could have cropped the image to only show 24?

The results for the RTF Ugly Buildings competition are in!

Spent a whole battery in vain hoping someone would walk by on the path next to it in a red top. Oh well. :sweat_smile:

Attempt 2 as struggling to sleep!

Item 5, A Clock Tower

A clock tower you say, why have the tallest one in the world.

(looks like I need to re-learn night photography on the Mini 3, a bit of a problem when you have 60 seconds to get the shot and not wanting to prolong your stay any longer than necessary due to being a Commonwealth Games venue, it is 10 o’clock gov!)

Bonus points for

  • Clock showing ten o’clock
  • Ten o’clock being 22:00

I did spend half an hour trying to find any digital clock towers that would show 22:00 :joy: :joy:

I blamed the heat!

Clarification please on 22.

Are you looking for just static caravans?

The question also asks for 24 mobile homes, which are caravans or camper vans?

Ian, look at thw Wikipedia definition:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_home

Motor caravans, motor homes and camper vans serve a different porpose

Well in the UK ;o)

Should have added free standing

Would you clarify, please, are you after a ‘boozer’ type pub specifically, or will you accept an image of one of those multi-purpose pub/restaurant places that tend to have replaced the traditional pub that used to be there?
