can't be that many castles with trampolines

koogs, Friday, 18 November 2022 22:21 (two years ago) link

oh, I thought that was netting for catching falling building chunks

StanM, Friday, 18 November 2022 22:49 (two years ago) link

I think it's safe to say we haven't got a clue? :-)

StanM, Monday, 21 November 2022 10:07 (one year ago) link

Help? :(

StanM, Wednesday, 30 November 2022 16:35 (one year ago) link

Here's a game for all you OSINT fans, in the photo below is a location you have to find I'll give you a hint it's in donbass and you have to come back with the exact location in the replies.

Aiden Aslin has posted one here as well if anyone wants a go at that too

first instinct is New Zealand. maybe on an estuary? no time to search right now tho

or something, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 18:23 (one year ago) link

pittosporums (i think) & a tī kōuka/cabbage tree would suggest so... getting a south island vibe. is corrugated iron roofing even a thing outside the south pacific?

driving on the left side of the road

StanM, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 21:35 (one year ago) link

So the road markings from the first picture are a clearway which is also a bike lane. Also applies to Australia.

As shown here:

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Wednesday, 7 December 2022 22:45 (one year ago) link

an australian c2 line has evenly spaced breaks 3m on 3m off. at least in nsw. looks like nz.

micah, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 23:33 (one year ago) link

The vehicle registration ticket in the bottom corner of the windscreen looks like New Zealand

nate woolls, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 23:38 (one year ago) link

Dunedin?

Zelda Zonk, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 23:45 (one year ago) link

Could be Lyttelton

nate woolls, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:09 (one year ago) link

So, Christchurch.

nate woolls, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:10 (one year ago) link

I wasn't sure if it was Kandallah or Newlands looking across to East Harbour, so Wellington.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:11 (one year ago) link

Yeah I don't think it is Lyttelton/Banks Peninsula, it looks much too populated.

nate woolls, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:14 (one year ago) link

dunedin fits the geography, i couldn't find the castle though

ciderpress, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:28 (one year ago) link

Also the neighbourhood watch signs on the pole look very New Zealand

phew. well done!

StanM, Monday, 19 December 2022 22:09 (one year ago) link

great stuff. but where is the castle?

ledge, Tuesday, 20 December 2022 11:59 (one year ago) link

lymington castle:

https://goo.gl/maps/xVPHDAsVgVh7CUgy5

ledge, Tuesday, 20 December 2022 12:15 (one year ago) link

built single-handedly over a 15 year period in the 50s and 60s!

ledge, Tuesday, 20 December 2022 12:17 (one year ago) link

well done, I gave up on the castle

or something, Tuesday, 20 December 2022 12:30 (one year ago) link

good work, was tough to find good views for that one, especially near the castle house itself

Christmas View

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Friday, 23 December 2022 08:25 (one year ago) link

what ARE we looking at here - artificial snow ski slope kind of thing?

StanM, Friday, 23 December 2022 13:16 (one year ago) link

more like the stands of a stadium, no?

the shaker intro bit the shaker outro in the tail, hard (breastcrawl), Friday, 23 December 2022 13:28 (one year ago) link

I think the top of a ski slope looks right - the left hand side as we look at it has nothing behind it and the right hand side drops away

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Friday, 23 December 2022 16:24 (one year ago) link

Looks like a solar farm?

immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Friday, 23 December 2022 16:26 (one year ago) link

To me it’s a river above the seating of a sports ground, with a railway line between. Looks like Europe maybe?

assert (matttkkkk), Friday, 23 December 2022 16:46 (one year ago) link

Solar farm is a good call

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Saturday, 24 December 2022 14:09 (one year ago) link

Yeah I don't think it can be a stadium, the shape is irregular and it's in a steep slope
The rest of the terrain is pretty flat if you look at the horizon but that "railway" (that I took to be road at first) looks like a funicular ?

Nabozo, Saturday, 24 December 2022 14:29 (one year ago) link

Only viewing on my phone and not able to have a better look but from memory the big cemetery in Stuttgart is on a hill and has a funicular running behind it.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Saturday, 24 December 2022 16:14 (one year ago) link

Not sure it's got any water that close to it though.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Saturday, 24 December 2022 16:15 (one year ago) link

i think most of the appearance of a slope and the funny shape of the stadium seating towards the lower right is due to lens distortion. look at the the funny shapes of the trees over there and the blurriness. its possible the image has been cropped toward the right side of the frame which can introduce an apparent tilt.

it also looks like a standard railway, regular sleepers etc and catenary type that is common in germany and france at least. there are no signs of it being a funicular and i wouldn't expect to see a river or lake at the top of a hill.

the biggest clue might be the colour of the stadium seats but idk. could also be an odd or horseshoe shaped stadium which might indicate a particular sport?

micah, Saturday, 31 December 2022 10:34 (one year ago) link

i'm voting for stadium - curiously the colour pattern isn't completely random, each block has the same pattern.

ledge, Tuesday, 3 January 2023 16:08 (one year ago) link

bump for new pic plz

ledge, Friday, 6 January 2023 14:22 (one year ago) link

it's very flat. looks like a suspension bridge in the middle but the towers are very close together.

ledge, Friday, 6 January 2023 15:36 (one year ago) link

Aren't parts of Germany pretty flat?

o. nate, Friday, 6 January 2023 22:09 (one year ago) link

Getting Germany vibes too

𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Friday, 6 January 2023 23:16 (one year ago) link

germany, czechia, poland, hungary

ciderpress, Saturday, 7 January 2023 00:23 (one year ago) link

the stadium chairs in the first pic do have the colours of the German flag, if that is something we should use as a clue...
