Thank you to everyone who competed, thank you to everyone who watched from the sidelines and well done to you all. Thatās it for another year, another milestone in Grey Arrows Drone Clubās story. Itās growing bigger and better every day!
We would like to wish you all goodbye on behalf of our stalwart judges who are, err, unavoidably detained at the present time ā¦
Goodbye!
"Taxi for the judges ⦠"
Awsome comp again, really close this year⦠but can anyone beat John!
Fantastic entries; congratulations to the winners and well done everyone who took part.
Lets not forget the fiendish devils who came up with the challenges ⦠twisted they are, but entertaining nevertheless.
Well done everyone. I had such a fun time collecting the shots I entered, rising to new challenges that I had not considered before (applying for a flight in an FRZ), some items were easier than others. I would like to thank you all for the banter and the encouragement and also my friend who always accompanies me on these challenges to be my support and my spotter. Thank you to @Challenges_Committee for putting this together and all the chatter, yes that even includes the blue toilet tent entry I am looking forward to next years challenge.
Now I just need the weather to be reasonable for flying so I can continue growing in confidence.
I have found this very very interesting, humorous & have watched with great detail whilst having a right giggle to myself, I never thought / did not realise how hungry & lavish many of you are for it ā so fairplay to you all ā, myself also want to say a big thanks @Challenges_Committee & what hard work it must be over the last many weeks, also especially when decisions have to be made that may not go in the entrants favour but the rules are the rules I guess & easy makes no challenge whatsoever !
I remember a saying ā rules are made to be broken quote American General - Douglas MacArthur ā
Jokes aside no seriously itās been great fun watching well done all & I know you will all appreciate a well deserved rest & truly deserved winners
Congratulation John @john768 Adrian @AdrianR and Ian @DroneGeek
Congratulations to the winners!
and well done to everyone who took part! I would have loved to have made more time for this but work got in the way. Happy though with my top ten finish.
Well done everyone, the top 3, the committee, everyone who took part. Twas fun. Nuff said. Bring on next yearās!!
Great job everyone! Well done John and Ian, especially - we felt the pressure throughout the last few weeks . It feels wonderful to come second, but I would reiterate that itās the taking part - getting out there flying and photographing - thatās the real fun.
Well done to you @AdrianR
That was the hardest challenge yet .Some of the shots took a lot of waiting the worst being 10 hours waiting over two days for a recovery truck to move a bus , or 4 visits to a Quarry to finally have the Conveyer belt working. I did not think I would get any were near the top three this year. as @DroneGeek @AdrianR and @Acedrone had some fantastic shots . Thanks to all that made the challenge possible, and all the participants
Well Done, @john768 @DroneGeek @AdrianR and all others who had a go.
I was only able to do ones the were local and easy, but it was good to have a thinking challenge.
Well done all who took part, your persistence and skills are inspiratonal to us all
Well done everyone !
If memory serves ( it probably doesnāt ) I think I did about the same as last year
Well done everybody. An especially huge well done to @DroneGeek, @AdrianR and @john768. Itās no mean feat to have collected all of the items, thatās a good job jobbed.
Also, massive thanks to the @Challenges_Committee for organising another excellent treasure hunt. I started out the challenge thinking Iād bag a couple of entries and get my name down near the bottom of the board like every other year, so to get fifth probably shows how caught up in it I got. Certainly pushed me to do a few things outside my comfort zone, thatās for sure.
My wife will be glad itās all over for another year and I can stop listing the things Iām still looking for every time we head out in the car.
Well done the worthy winners, it takes a lot of effort to get there . I may have got a couple more if I hadnāt missed the final week by going on holiday but Iām in it for the fun, not the prizes.
Donāt be so sure. We still canāt stop spotting things we needed last year!
It might pay you to start counting in eights ā¦
Well done everyone.
What devious scheming plans have the committee got for next year.
