On here you will find details of any videos I’ve made of things in Derby and also Time-lapse, stop motion animation, Tutorials etc. If I find some useful software for PC or iPhone then I will feature it here.I’m sure that there will be something of interest to someone on my many posts.Please leave comments on any posts if you like them.
Don’t forget if you are new to my blog and would like to read through the previous posts then see the Blog Archive section on the left side of this page.
Also there is a Search box at the top left of the page if you are looking for something but cant remember where it was. I am a trustee member of "Friends of Friar Gate bridge", aiming to get this bridge restored.

Friar Gate Bridge to be "wrapped up" for Christmas due to its poor condition.

Any Derby photographers out there that love this bridge had better make sure you take your photos sooner rather than later as safety netting is to be put up beneath Friar Gate bridge amid concerns that parts of the bridge could come loose !

It is proposed that "debris containment netting" is installed that will stop pedestrians and motorists getting hit by bits of iron work.

See what it will look like when its wrapped up:

I just hope that funding can be found to restore this iconic bridge before its too late to save it.
If you have not yet signed my online petition to get the bridge restored then please do so...

Sign it today!
Thanks

Andy
