Flo Selecta, Derby - April 2017

[Yorrick]

History

Flo Selecta or more correctly “the northern relief culvert” commences at Markeaton Park, near to the confluence of the Markeaton and Mackworth brooks.
Each brook has its own inlet spillway, with a weir that overflows during periods of high flows.
Flows from these inlets converge, and are then taken by the relief culvert eastwards for 2.2 km through the suburbs of Derby, to an outfall with the Derwent in Darley Park.

Second time down here and again organised by @Punk. Thanks mate. It was good to catch up with the few I knew and to meet a few new faces, @The Kwan, @Urban_Tomb_Raider, @jsp77 and a couple of others I think who’s names I missed.


First time out with my replacement film camera. Not great shots but an improvement on the last lot.

A couple with the DSLR

I really like your film shots. They do seem to have a hidden quality / authenticity that digital doesn't seem to muster up.

There is something lovely about film shots, I really like the last dslr shot though...cool report

Nice, It'll be interesting to see what my film shots came out like when I eventually get around to sending it off for development. I told myself I was going to do it today.... but I didn't.
