Reprise of the rules. The winner of the previous round posts a picture and a question about it. Typically "where. You may not use "tin eye" or similar reverse image look up sites. Please do not use XCIF data from the image to help. (note to posters, please remove XCIF data). This can include titles and location data. Please do not allow 24 hours to pass between clues. Questions deserve an answer (with the exception, of course, of directly asking for the answer). We will have to figure out how to deal with winners that go AWOL. Clues may be text or photographic. Contestants may use text searches to look for images (in particular images.google.com is allowed to be searched via text searches). There is no rule about having visited a place. If you have visited a place (or not) and instantly recognize where the picture is, go for it. Please try to choose a picture and question where it is possible someone else will know or be able to research your answer. For example a picture of someone in your family and asking for the name will be just impossible for anyone else to get. ![]() ![]() BOINC WIKI |

Hmm. Some minster. Was going to say rhododendron but it looks more like oleander. Carola ------- I'm multilingual - I can misunderstand people in several languages! |

Right. Something prompted me to look up Dom zu Speyer, Germany right after mentioning oleanders, but I thought it slightly unfair and I didn't have a followup photo. Carola ------- I'm multilingual - I can misunderstand people in several languages! |
