I've provided you with the info you need to determine where this is. It may not be obvious at first glance, and may require an extra step or two, but, the info is there. Ima throw a "most likely" in there, too.

Where is this? Most likely.

English Channel - off the coast of Brest?

English cleavage off the coast of breast?

fargon 04-27-2016 04:03 PM

That water looks cold.

glatt 04-27-2016 04:18 PM

It is my informed opinion that Dana is correct.

Gravdigr 04-28-2016 02:29 PM

Dana is, indeed, correct. Most likely.:D

Pyotr Velikiy along with the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov and the tankers Segey Osipov, Kama and Dubna; the tugboat Altay, and the landing support ship Minsk entered the English Channel to sail north. The British destroyer HMS Dragon monitored the Russian task group as it neared the United Kingdom. Once the ships spotted each other they sailed briefly close by as a standard 'meet and greet'.

Lake Titicaca?

glatt 07-21-2016 02:39 PM

YES!

glatt 07-21-2016 02:40 PM

Those are the floating reed islands of Lake Titicaca. They rot fairly quickly, so the inhabitant need to constantly add more reeds to the top layer.

Gravdigr 07-21-2016 02:59 PM

I wasn't real sure about that, as I couldn't find an area of the lake that resembled your pic.

But, yay me!

Gravdigr 07-21-2016 03:03 PM

I (finally) guessed they were temporary floating islands when I noticed they were differently shaped in the three-month span pics.

I spent waaaay too much time looking for something that probably wasn't there anymore.:neutral:

glatt 07-21-2016 03:24 PM

That first picture is still there. It's in a winding channel that goes through the marshland near Puno

Thanks for the hint, Grav!

I'm ashamed to say that I don't know very much about France despite it being our nearest (continental) neighbour.

It's about 120 miles as the Dwellar flies from here to France's closest point, yet I've never been there.

As an illustration of proximity, I could catch an early morning train, transit a few stops across London on the Tube to the Eurostar terminal, and be in Paris in time for an overpriced lunch.

Perhaps one day!

Then again...

What search words did you use?

fargon 11-08-2016 03:56 PM

I used image search.

Gravdigr 11-09-2016 11:24 AM

Uh, you mean you typed words into Google Image Search, right?

'Cause the Drag'n'Drop Image Search is right out, illegal, uncouth and uncalled for.:eyebrow:

Attachment 58736

Keep in mind that Drag-n-Drop-type searches and Tin-Eye searches are frowned upon in this establishment. That requires no skill, nor even effort.

You can use WORDS to do a Google Image Search, or words to search any other way. Of course, you can also use personal knowledge.:cool:

Spirit Lake, north of Mt. St. Helen's?

That's the spirit!

Way to go.

Gravdigr 07-11-2017 04:53 PM

I thought that was it, but, I couldn't come up w/the name of the lake, though. I took a quick look at GoogleEarth to confirm.

Gravdigr 07-11-2017 04:58 PM

For others:

This is Spirit Lake.

Attachment 61272

It lies around four miles north of Mt. St. Helen's. When Ol Helen blew her top, she blew down probably millions of trees for a long way around, and those trees wound up in Spirit Lake. The log jam (for lack of a better word) is about 2.5 miles long, and just under a mile across at it's widest.

Other smaller lakes around the area also have log jams (small one in the upper left of the pic), but not on a scale like this. The surrounding hills have an astounding number of fallen trees. It's well worth wandering around the area on GoogleEarth.

glatt 07-11-2017 05:36 PM

I'm a little surprised those logs are all still there after being weathered for 37 years.
