Where is this Intersection?
I've been trying to track down the location of this intersection. A similar image showed up as my screen saver. As an infrastructure enthusiast, I wanted to track it down and take a google street view of it.
Despite hours of searching, I have not been able to locate it. I was able to find the intersection in several places online that indicate it is in Bangkok. However, none of the intersections I found look like this. I even googled "three-level stacked roundabout in Bangkok" which produced a Gemini response which showed this picture but stated Bangkok does not have three-level stack interchanges.
Does anyone know where this is?

please help me find the location of this 70s film photo!
Bit of a silly story, but I inherited a 1972 slide film projector off of a family member as I'm considering getting into film photography, to test if its working properly, I bought a few slides off of ebay from a seller (who sells thousands of slides) and in the collection was this photo. I absolutely loved its youthful energy and would hopelessly love to recreate it. Please help me find this location to truly pay homage to this photograph! All I know is that its a 70s photo, and its in the UK Thanks a lot!

Probably Central Italy c1900-1910
This is a photo of my great-grandparents, who moved to to London around this time, but the background looks more Italian than British. They were from a small town near Cassino in Italy.

Early Icelandic cinematographer travelling around Germany in 1936, in which city was this shot?
An Icelandic Photographer travelled to Germany in 1936 to buy a 16mm movie camera and shot these experimental shots. I am trying to identify in which German city he started shooting to establish a timeline on his travels around the country and to find out when he started filming. Upon his return to Iceland he became one of the country´s pioneers in film making.
All help would be greatly appreciated.
I find the stern warning on the Strassenbahn very interesting.

Banff Scotland in 1872. The little girl to the far right is my 2nd great grandmother. Her oldest sister is getting married. I would love to know if this building/wall still stands and where it is!

Where is this dam?
This photo was among my late father's possessions. There are a few others of my great grandparents taken at this location, but aside from realizing it's probably a dam, I've got nothing. Likely 1920s, likely US (but could be Canada). Thanks!

I can’t find the image source or any image results online, but similar photos seem to be located on Italy’s Northern coast near Genoa. Any idea of the location? I see a flat roofed tower featuring perhaps a fort/citadel and a wall blocking a portion of the beach. Source of article from travel site.

The album cover of "Alroy Road Tracks" by The Duke of Harringay (1995). Suspect it to be Leytonstone station, but need more confidence.
