the wreck of the US merchant ship Alkimos off the coast of Perth, Australia

Found via a Google Image Search for: perth abandoned lighthouse platform

infinite monkey · 11-23-2011, 11:19 AM

Yes!

I found it because I googled things like "interesting places" or "unusual places" and kept getting hits of places that weren't so unusual.

So I googled Haunted Places.

A relic of WW II e.g. Battle of the Coral Sea

Oh well, not the first time I've been a dollar short and a day late...

You have to be quick around here, Lamp.

This pict is extracted from a comic book, but identical to the real life model, so where is this?

Lamplighter · 11-25-2011, 05:56 PM

Rothenburg, Germany

It took to two Google searches to find the same image in a pic

Google search: "town clock tower gate"

2) http://members.fortunecity.com/degur...0/germany.html

Can I have partial credit for looking at the illustration and saying, "that looks like Germany?"

Lamplighter · 11-25-2011, 08:11 PM

Of course, you get full credit. Without your thoughts, how else would
Google's searches have come up with that particular town clock tower ?

Wolf, will you pick the next place, OK ?

wolf · 11-25-2011, 09:33 PM

I would, but I'm still involved with all the crazynurse stuff and I can't reliably monitor the thread.

Sundae · 11-26-2011, 02:14 AM

Okay, I'll step in.

wolf · 11-26-2011, 10:25 AM

Aylesbury?

Sundae · 11-26-2011, 10:39 AM

Even I'm not that obvious

It is a recognisable place.
