Photo Location Puzzle Thread
How about we have a Photo Location Puzzle thread?!?
I know a few other members enjoy trying to find where photos were taken from. Here is one for you to locate. Of course, it's in Ajaccio. Happy hunting! |

Tough one, but I know what part of town that Rue resides based on the geography. Give me some time to nail it down. At work and busy so it might take me a little while to pin point it.

Take your time But someone else just might beat you to the prize.
To make sure the first challenge would be do-able, I located the place before I posted. It is a little tricky though if you use the same tool I used due to those trees. And perhaps whoever solves it first might post the next challenge. Or not. I can always find something to use. |

Just saw this. I usually do not look at off topic but I did today for some reason.
Photographer was using a telephoto lens and was standing at 41.9178° 8.7393° Looking NorthWest. Might have been standing outside: Napoleon's natal home Edit: -------------------=---------------------- OK. Two questions: 1. Where is this? 2. What event involving Alizée happened here? The next picture is one of my favorites. This question is only for members who joined AFTER Jan 1st, 2014. 3. When was this picture taken? (Note: I won't ask specifically where. That would be too tough.)

At least it's nice to know I was with in two to three square blocks of the location. Just didn't have the time to pin it down, congratulations Rev.

I'm thinking that people might not have found this thread.
Here is a little bump. Is anyone interested in answering these questions in the quote below? Otherwise I'll post a photo for the next challenge. How easy or difficult does everyone want the next one to be? I have several lined up. Quote:

Though I have seen another fan 'page' discuss it openly. Very good! Any guesses on the other one? No hurry at all. That one can go on the back burner. Here is another one! I require the exact point of the photographer for this one. Puzzle 7 Last edited by Ray4AJ; 09-13-2015 at 05:52 PM.. Reason: adding in the puzzle number |

Bravo Rev!
Well, your first photo I recognized right away as the place someone got l'ochju. So I'll pass on that and let someone else work on it. The second I also remember well, and as I don't qualify to answer the question, I decided to locate the site. (I couldn't help myself.) Knowing the approximate area and the time of day that photo was taken, I observed the shadows cast by the sun and decided on a direction to use for my search. First I started with this photo: You can see the rue there in the center leading straight away up the slight hill. From: http://www.tarrano-bonicardo.com/aja..._nostalgie.htm (I didn't really start with this one ) Here it is on Google Earth: And on streetview: We don't need no Psychebooboo watermarks! Anyway, that's Boulevard Sylvestre Marcaggi. Quote:

ALS - Thanks.
Ray4AJ - Excellent! Talking about hitting it out of the ballpark. How do you know about l'ochju, and how did you know someone had gotten it (I had not heard that - or at least I don't remember it)? Have you read Dorothy Carrington's book? I thought questions 1 & 2 might be too easy, you never know what people will remember. OK. Although while I am hoping that someone will actually answer questions 1-3, I think you have earned the right to post the next puzzle.
