Where is this place...?

[Andrew Darné]

Do you know this town, and if so what area?

I will reveal the details later, want to see some response from all of you out there... don't be shy, I was surprised when I looked at the pic after downloading it.

Alf, hang back a bit...

[Michael Alexander]

A Nice pic..... different view...... things look compressed.....

[Mike Voden (RIP)]

I agree with you Mike A, very compressed and very well done. A good photo of Town Garage in the middle

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

 
Looks like the bend comming into town, then 1st Ave town garage, all those trees possibly to the right of that bend. Remember resovours (sp) being there'ish.
Seems like more than one photo put to-gether.
OK so thats my guess.

[Mike Voden (RIP)]

Yep, I agree and might say a collage of photo's put together. One can even see a horizontal straight line at the top of the dump going from left to right

[Andrew Darné]

A few distinctive landmarks observed...

It's 1 photo that's cropped top and bottom to exclude unnecessary kb's; besides, nothing but sky and a few bushes that were chopped. No forced distortion, collaging or photoshop tricks used.

[Mike Voden (RIP)]

Was this taken on a hot and barmy east wind day..............??????. If so, it could explain the effects of so called distortion

[Andrew Darné]

Taken on a pleasant morning, about 19° outside.
The secret is the distance from which the pic was taken, zoomed in all I could... and remember some quality was lost during the downsizing process.

[Jeremy Dixon]

I recon it was taken from swartkops hill but in all honestyu you would need a massiv lens or a really decent camera to zoom in that far

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

I also seem to think I see the road to the mine. Perhaps intended to be as the crow flew from the entrance to town ,along 1st, then onto the mine road.
Come on now Andrew put me out of my missery...or should I phone Alfred for the correct answer.

Taken  from the top of the crystal  quarry   as one entered  town ,,,

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

Thats kinda sort off where I mean.

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

Me again....this is bugging me. Just remembered that road on the other side of the first Ave tree's there where Jowels used to be. Taken towards the mine so I guess from the entrance to town. Must be height so from a dune or something.
I officially give up after this.

Look at the reservoir on the right hand side.   There is a scrap stealth F117 outside.  Painted green.  Its a give away..  holiday camp in California....
