• In Memoriam: budderflyman said:

  I love these aeroplane photos

• Harry Angstrom said:

  this looks like Venice?

• Kristi (LOC P&P) said:

  Harry Angstrom: It does look like this might be Venice, though it's quite indistinct. The campanile of St. Mark's and St. Mark's do appear to be the tower and domes visible in the background. Thanks for the comment!

• Wystan said:

  "Good progress is being made with the hydro-aeroplane station which the Italian government is establishing in Venice. Commander Ginocchio will be in charge . . . . Six machines have been purchased in France for the station." -- Flight, November 30, 1912: www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1912/1912 - 1121.html

Bridge & Burnett River Bundaberg

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Burnett River, a river in southeastern Queensland, Australia, rising on the western slope of the Burnett Range, east of the Eastern Highlands. The river flows southwest to Eidsvold and turns east at Mundubbera and then northeast through Gayndah and Bundaberg to enter the Pacific Ocean at Burnett Heads, after a course of 270 mi (435 km). It has a catchment area of 12,440 sq mi (32,220 sq km). The chief tributaries are the Auburn and Boyne rivers and Barambah Creek. Its upper reaches water beef-cattle country, whereas further downstream sugarcane and dairy farms predominate. Navigability is limited to the 10 mi below Bundaberg. The river was named after the surveyor J.C. Burnett, who explored it in 1847. Source: www.britannica.com/place/Burnett-River
