The Photograph Thread

ronnie3585

This has worked in other regional threads - so why not here!!

Here's the rules, a poster posts a picture of Galway, people guess until someone is right. The winner either posts a picture or forfeits and somebody else steps up and posts a picture.

You have to take the picture yourself (basically, don't take from websites). If it's a neighbourhood picture, take a picture that people can reasonably guess at. Not some back alley or some generic house. And make sure the picture takes in quite a bit (i.e. not a close-up of a bench or something) People just have to guess the neighbourhood, but for a city picture the winner has to name the street.

Please don't give the title away in the file name.

I'll start off with an easy one;

According to the OP the right guess wins the right to post next pic? That's ronnie3585.

Fey!

OP; where did you actually get your pic? Is it the one that was printed in the Star a few weeks ago?

Got it on another thread over on AH. Not my pic, but it's one of the most random/funniest things I've seen so thought it would be a good way to start the thread.

In work so I don't have any photies.

It's probably better if anyone can post a picture once one has been answered correctly.

Easy - Quay Street seen from Jury's.

Where is this? Hint: it's city centre somewhere.

Not the best shot, but all the others just have trees.. Galway city, a very learned path.
