While looking at John Coyle's images from Brisbane I thought it would be
fun to see if I could find where they were taken.

It only took a few minutes and from half way round the world I was able to
spot almost exactly where John must have been standing when he took the
photos.  Google Earth has nice high res images of Brisbane and John's
bridge is quite distinctive.

If you have not tried Google Earth you really should give it a try.

High speed access is likely a good idea.  It is amazing what you can see in
many parts on the world.

You can email locations to other Google Earth users but since attachments
are not allowed on the list I made a little web page with a link.

When you have Google Earth click on  "Google Earth bridge test"  on this page
and I hope it will take you there.  For some reason on my system WinZip
gets in the way some times but after clicking unzip the link works.

I think it would be great if we could add a Google Earth link to some of
our photos so others could see where they were taken.  Unfortunately the
area around my location is quite low res.  

Any one with suggestions of easy ways to add Google Earth .kmz link files
to photos?

Let me know if the link works for you.
