So, if someone may have fudged on a photography competition, it now impacts this dig. The photographer is claiming he has captured SHROUDING on WESTMINSTER as of 17/18JUN 2014.
Do we believe him or is our evidence stronger for an APRIL 2024 teardown of the shrouding?
Pic unrelated and only to doc the date of the London24 competition in 2014.
Well, setting aside Flikr's getting the photos' taken/submitted dates wrong right out of the gate, we appear to have 2 submissions which dispute the London24 2014 Thames photo which makes our photography competitor a naughty boy. I am still interested in finding out the real date the photo was taken re MILLBANK lights being a really close match.
So BrownBear Photography is basically a guy, doxxing not necessary or the goal. But also has a diff site, Society6. I can say that he repeatedly makes positive assertions re the Vimeo vid as being pics from London24 2014 which was the evening of 20JUN thru morning of 21JUN 2014.
Just wanted to add that some MILLBANK lights may be hidden by WESTMINSTER tower/spires in LISAMI6 which might make the light pattern toward the bottom seem different in LISAMI6 vs "LONDON24/2014".
Need to mull this one over. Probs with a lighted Air Memorial can be explained by the fact the photographer likes to "paint" his pictures, using double or extended exposure. Thus, he may have caught the Air Memorial before the lights were turned off. Tatts being dark and remaining dark is interesting. I already noted he could avoid the Moon by starting before moonrise or deleting any with a moon in them. The SHROUD is the problem for BrownBear. The problem is this picture and his other B/W photo, both from that night which do not show a shroud on Westminster. And I can say that with no confirmation bias. It would be bad form to accuse at this point but Muh Shroud.
>In addition to the shroud, and the almost craneless skyline, the coverage on the trees seems light for summer.
Anon, remem that "constellation" we couldn't IDEN in LONDON2847? It had angular lines. Like cranes now that you mention it. But color was subdued in LISAMI6.
Alrighty then. Not cranes. Then I can go look for constellations in Mar/Apr/May/Jun.
But back to our BrownBear. How do we approach that? I don't think his pic is from June 2014. Would love to ask him when he really took the pic.
Btw, there were 2 pics with the AirMemorial dark. So it does happen. Need BakerAnon to go on a late stroll.
I suppose, if we had full confidence, approach Nikon about the pic. But you say it might not have been officially submitted. So he just needed sumthin gud to throw up on his own site mebbe? And who would check him on his pic? Besides us.
Almost entirely missed your point in posting that. I went to the link, looked at the noice very painting-like picture of Westminster from across the Thames, and said noice picture. So, we are getting a pretty gud set of pictures that day that DO NOT MATCH BrownBear's picture he says was taken on 20JUN2014. Hmmm
Is this picture allegedly taken 20MAR2014 at a LONDON24 photo contest close enough to LISAMI6 to be NOTABLE in the GR bread? But, for two reasons: 1) It is the best picture found of a possible match to LISA. ie MILLBANK, lighting of TATT
Should mention Air Memorial differences but also why that pic might show it lit up vs lights out in LISA but that LISA is a simple capture.
Now, anons might like to know why we think the picture is falsely attributed to a date in June, the date of the London24 photography event.
I think the find of the MILLBANK BLDG lights match in that 24LONDON pic vs LISA compelling enuf to NOTABLE here and in GR.
Wow. More proof the photographer's photo is falsely attributed to the wrong date. Liar, liar. Gud werk, Anon
Kek. Hope you know how funny that is. If you were trying to help, then your efforts are endearing. Thank you.
Anon, thank you for posting those vids and taking an interest in the London digz. We on the UK thread are familiar with that YT account and that is why I thought you might have been having a bit of fun.
But if you are new eyes here, please do not think I am being dismissive of you posting here. Some if our greatest finds and leaps forward in the London pics have been anons contributing a pic or vid on some other aspect of the dig and making great find on another part of the dig by accident.
Welcome to the digz.
