Although this may look like little more than a puddle, this place is quite significant.

That may be for an overseas visitor but it looks like a lot of other "puddles" I have seen while travelling Australia. :) For me this is the underside of a picnic table .... :)

I understand Henk. I was thinking of giving some more clues, but then two people (ecc233 ans rawshorty) say that they have located it. It might be an idea if, before I give some clues, those who think they've got it can send me a message confirming their answers. If they are right, I can rest easy. If they are wrong, I'll give some clues.

rawshorty seems to have got it - but in answering him, I realised that I had a huge mistake and given a wrong answer to one of the questions. This picture was taken in the north of Alice Springs, not south of it. I'll explain why when someone gets it. I hope I haven't inconvenienced anyone (especially you Henk:-))

it is just a matter of mentioning the "go to places" on the tourist track until Roy says "yes" :) Trephina Gorge, may be?

OK. This isn't going anywhere. I am away and will only be able to put up something relatively easy from my iPhone. Nevertheless, I would say the photo is of the Telegraphy Station on Todd River at Alice Springs.

I'd already had a message from ECC233 a couple of days ago and can confirm that he is right. Over to you Ed.

Here you go. I think this one is very easy. But the perfect answer will also say where the picture was taken from :-)

Or from the "spaghetti junction" of motorways on the other side of the Rhine?

Sorry ... I only just got back in from a day walking in the Camargue. Paul has it .... the wheel is only part of the Herbstmesse. But this is a unique view from the top of the new Roche tower. I said it was easy ... but I don't have much with me.
