  Merry Christmas! Streetview / photosphere - goo.gl/maps/AzmgN2A2PEC2 The harbour seems to have changed shape since Mr Eblana's day. Flickr is sometimes amazing! In 2009 via Wayne Brown [https://www.flickr.com/photos/waynetbrown/3780971690/]

  Yes, at some point the 'harbour' turned into a 'pier' - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000330871 (Lawrence) SAME AS ABOVE catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000326723 (Lawrence) catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000590478 (Poole)

• aidanhodson said:

  Is it my imagination or are the near harbour wall and the sail boats painted into the picture?

• beachcomber australia said:

  UNLESS ... the entire near wall of the harbour (and the sailing boats) seem to have been drawn in or faked on the original Lawrence and reproduced here. What is going on? [Ed. snap @ aidanhodson ]

• beachcomber australia said:

  In 1877 this happened - "A LATE high tide has done considerable damage at Tramore, Ireland. Part of the new pier at Lady's Cove has been swept away, and the new promenade road has been torn up. The sea has swept in over the land and covered large districts." From - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/170435205?searchTerm=t... Does this mean that the photo is after 1877, and Mr French / Lawrence / Eblana was imagining what the rebuilt pier would look like?

  A photo of Waikiki Beach, with Diamond Head as the backdrop. The pier is a private pier belonging to the Moana Hotel, which would be just off the frame to the left.

  There's what looks like a reverse view with what was identified as Ben Bulben in the background.

• John Spooner said:

  A very pleasing 3-D image with lots of depth when viewed using a suitable viewer (except for the 2 hairs which appear to be floating in mid air).

• Sharon Corbet said:

  O Mac That link is to the map of Albert College. (Geohive is a bit weird - you have to save the map to the user gallery and use the link that is produced.)
