The Photograph Thread

    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,183 ✭✭✭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.

    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.
