Where was/is this painted Labyrinth? Vancouver BC April 2015
Hi All, I took this photo of a labyrinth I walked regularly in the spring of 2015. It’s for sure somewhere in Vancouver’s Mount Pleasant, Strathcona or Hastings-Sunrise Neighbourhoods. It is not the one in Strathcona Linear Park on Hawks Ave - I have a separate photo of that one from the same year. Can anyone help me identify the location? I wanted to check if it’s still there. Thanks!

Found on Instagram. Here's a video of the surrounding area. Could be near a factory? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBDHA9tR9z7/?igsh=MW9hajZrazFzdnF5

The band is from Spain, but the photo could be anywhere. The symbol in the middle might be a cattle skull and a trumpet. Note the reflection.

Anyone know what mall this was taken at? For some context, I found this photo on pinterest. The photo seems to be from before 2008 since linen and things went out of business in 2008. The car is a 2004-2005 dodge ram and learning express usa is still an active company.

This photo was apparently a part of a series of photos from the 80's about the pollution in London, England at the time. I cant find anything else about it online.

Where was this photo of my great grandparents taken?
They lived in Dundee before moving to Arbroath, so I’m sure this is in Scotland, either of these places. The potato shop in the background may help…! Thank you!
