The photos have now been uploaded to Google under a new DERR google account. A slight change in the way that the photos are now hosted - Now using Google Drive rather than Google Photos. There was a technical reason for this but it’s the same nett result in the way people can view and download either all the photos in one large batch, download just one days’ worth or pick and choose individual photos to download.

The link for you to copy and paste into your email to everyone is the following – https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ete2HyfLYWnKbPZMkRUguce9DQOFGgZ6

There is no password, nor is a google account or any sign in required – It’s a simple case of click the link and browse the photos which are contained in three folders labelled Friday/Saturday/Sunday.

The photos and video of the DERR@60 Reunion is almost ready for distribution, over 3000 photos were taken during the weekend so it has taken some time to weed out duplications and blurred images, the video is just about complete regarding the editing and should be ready soon, all those that have pre ordered the video will be getting it soon. We will be informing everyone of how to access the photos via a Google link once it has all been set up and ready to go.

Please be patient we are sure that you will be delighted with the production once you are able to access the link, we would hope to release the link by the end of July.
