I still don't get the Ed Sullivan thing.

"Tonight, we're gonna have a really big shoe."

Just an imitation of Ed that I've heard over the years, I guess that was how he pronounced 'show'

:D

Where is this and how did it get to be that way ?
.

Right on...

Too easy for Glatt... next time I'll stump him for sure.

Since it's been quiet...

Where is this?

Attachment 37010

Bell Island in the Grey Islands of Newfoundland in 1987 with Captain Randy Price (check pilot) and Captain David Barkes at the controls. This Labrador Helicopter was from CFB Greenwood in Nova Scotia. The flight engineer was sgt. Kevin Gray.

This is the "where is it?" thread. The "how did it get to be that way ?" thread is down the hall, on the left. ;)

Dayum!

TonyE with the where, the when, the win, and the friggin who!!

:thumb:

Not to be outdone, the marines get on the horn and send one of theirs out to land on a smaller one.

And then this boat joined in on the fun.
Attachment 37018

Was tha Francesco Schettino's boat?

I don't know.

Riiiiiiight. Good luck with that.

OK Glatt, your clock starts now... where is this ?

Ooh, I know, it's the Land of the Lost!

Jurassic Park

The Dinosaur is Google HQ.

Hmm. apparently not. The Dino at the Googleplex is just bones. How's about just down the street from the Flinstones, over by LaBrea?

No to all so far...

Bob Jones University

bwaaahahahahhahahaha!!

St. Louis Science Center?

The paint jobs don't quite match, but you picture could be before it was repainted.

No to all so far. :yelsick:

OK, well I give up. Half an hour is all I can spend on it.

The Zoo in Calgary, Alberta, Canada

The all the text associated with that pic on the internet are in Chinese, so search is a bit difficult. :rolleyes:

OK, so where is this?

Above the clouds!

What do I win?

give that man a cigar!

Shanghai, China

The building under construction in the foreground has a new twist to it.

Not Shanghai. But, like Shanghai, these buildings are mostly new.

Yes, I realized I was wrong after the post.
I was going on two buildings of unusual shapes and found this for Shanghai.

The architecture reminds me of Dubai.

YES!

Dubai it is.

:) Thankfully someone got it.

That is some tall cotton, indeed.

No, really, where is this? I have no idea.

OK ... Jon Rafman is an artist engaged in a long-term project of collecting and curating these images.
He displays them on his blog Nine Eyes of Google Street View and is currently showing a selection in
“Free” at the New Museum in New York City (on view until Jan 23.) The show gathers works that speak
to the incredible abundance of the Internet, while examining the changing relationship between public and private space.
I think there was a PBS special on it, but that's where I keep finding a dead end.

You remember the scene in "Princess Bride" where Fezzik waits to smash Westley with a rock? I think it's somewhere around there.

Maybe Greece? I used tin eye and really only got links to sites that were showing the photos in Rafman's Nine Eye collection. I found a couple sites written in Greek.

Nothing to tell me where it is. I wonder if it really exists?

TonyE must not be able to find it either.

I looked for a few minutes back when you posted it. I bet it's near this place in NW France. The rocks and ground look very similar. But it's not the same place.

Yeah, it's odd. I've found other stone houses, with locations mentioned usually. But even most of these were found off google street view and then researched for authenticity.

I smell a rat. A stone cold rat. :ratsmilie: :cheese:

It's in The Shire;)

will ... not ... look ... again ...

I spent so much time the other day looking for this.
I'm ready to email somebody and ask. grrrr
Damn you IM, you sucked me into it again.

Ask that Rafman dude. He's got a site. I double dog dare you.

Otherwise I'm going to keep smelling that rat!

HA! check your PM.

You're an angel.

Thanks. :)

NEXT!?

:^)

Just got an email reply from the Photographer whom I contacted earlier today.

:notworthy

Cool.

Thanks Mr Rafman! :)

Wow! clicking on his link now shows a TON of images taken of that house.

Some absolutely gorgeous pictures!

Now I want to see the interior! :D

Tcha. You'd think Gunmaster would have answered this for us.
It's just down the road from him.
(In Aussie terms)

Yes, but I was busy trying to solve a bunch of heavy family problems (still not solved) along with being out of job by mid March.

So I didn't find time to open the cellar door.

Have you been there Gmaster?
Is it that close? What is the inside like?
Do people live there or ? ? ? ? ?

(nice to see you back)
