jake0400 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Hi All, Don't really post much but I thought some of you might like to see these film photos I got at Pride Park. Hoping to get down and do this again sometime. Fingers crossed when we're in the championship next season. Let me know what you think. Link here Derby County v Blackpool This camera was my Dad's (Also a big derby fan, he's on here somewhere) and had been sitting in the loft for years before getting a new lease of life. It's an Olympus OM1 if anyone cares, think it's from the 80s. Shot on Ilford XP2 film. A few also up on instagram and some other photos if anyone wants to see. https://www.instagram.com/p/C50d-TZiHqL/?igsh=b2RwbnpmdnF0OTFp Ramrob, LeedsCityRam, Nishfan and 11 others 8 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal is a Ram Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Fantastic pics. Out of curiosity, where does one procure ones film? I have a Pentax ME Super from the early 80s that I'd love to revive. jake0400 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewton Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I had an OM10 through most of the 80s - that was a great camera for a simple snapper like me to use. The OM1 was up a notch or two IIRC. Great photos Jake. jake0400 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8Leeds Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I used to love doing photography and working with black and white. There’s just something far more majestic about it. jake0400 and Dai Capp 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put arrows on to show you, and @Foreveram states there were 1200 of them. Those empty seats are down to DCFC, not the travelling Blackpool fans. Is there a point to your posts? 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got yer. 👍 I can never work out why they they shove them to the left/East when numbers are low, leaving one massive gap towards the south stand. If they're not going to hand those seats over for home fans, and they insist on so many empty seats for segregation, at least shove the away fans centrally and symmetrically in the corner. It plays havoc with my OCD! 🤣 Maybe they trust the east standers more than the south standers to behave themselves, hence the bigger gap to the south stand (when numbers are low)? 🤷♂️ PS: No accusations of being a smart-arse were intended, in my previous post(s). 🍻 Edited April 19 by Mucker1884 Grumpy Git 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadAmster Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 It seems the unsold "away" seats don't get put on sale for Rams fans because they could have a row of stewards between the fans but there would be no segregation in the concourse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake0400 Posted April 19 Author Share Posted April 19 Thanks all for taking a look. Will try colour next time as it's hard to distinguish the players or the different fans. 16 hours ago, Animal is a Ram said: Fantastic pics. Out of curiosity, where does one procure ones film?

The Blackpool fans were sat in the top right of this picture. You can't really tell them apart in these pictures but they were there!

He proceeded to pass it to the head steward along with another steward who scrutinised it for a few seconds and then declared, yeah, that’ll be alright 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
