  • Chimneys....

    Got some video footage of them coming down, and a few still photo\'s.... opted to go behind Baites Staithes on the hill, thinking there wouldn\'t be many people there.... WRONG!! lol.. All the roads were heaving.. this was the crowd...



    Now you see the chimneys...


    Now you don\'t!


    Dust settles on the new skyline...


    Didn\'t get any snaps of the chimneys coming down, too busy with the video camera.. last one to drop was excellent though, kinda froze for a few seconds then fell in the wrong direction! heh...

    Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything but bring a smile to your face when thrown down the stairs

        watched it from the quay side behind The Steamboat,very impressive and a massive turnout to watch it.I\'ve got mixed feelings about it,it was a massive eyesore but it has always been a landmark for me.

          5150,
          Do you have the technology to turn your video into an mpeg or avi file?
          I would love to see it.

                5150,
                Thanks for trying.

                Sadly, not a digital camcorder.
                And a technical bod like you without a video capture card on his PC.

                cheers Michael
