I don't think it's killed it, merely confined the search to actual photos rather than postcards.  You can still post all those Google doesn't find - I'm sure there will still be lots of them  :)

Found it ... (the image on the website, I mean !!)  ... it's at the bottom of the page ...

Another old postcard from Mike Jones, this one offers no clues. It is rather distinctive however. The curious structure atop the tower looks wooden, and may possibly no longer be there.
It's the same photo, and the dog must be very patient ... he hung around long enough for the photographer to take a clearer picture  ;D

Ha ha - this is funny.

A lot of the photos you've posted can't be found using the "find image" method, so don't stop posting. For instance after reading this, I tried it out with the statue I found using Google and key words. It didn't appear in images.

Using Trystan's tip from yesterday, about searching for images in Google, I found this site

http://www.churches-uk-ireland.org/unknown.html

That's ironic, that's actually another "WAI" site.

Have a look at this, several people will remember WAI No. 40 I'm sure.  Look at Barnsley under "Recently Identified" on Bob's link, that's my actual photo taken from Rootschat.  Kicking myself for not watermarking!   >:(

But it says An old photo sent in by Mike Jones, and identified by himself a little while later, and by John R. Parker. so maybe there was was more than one copy of your photo  :-\

I can do a side by side comparison if you like and point out where I cloned out a black mark on the right hand side.

Not only that, this is a photo…printed on Kodak Paper..it's not a postcard.

But isn't our Mike in Cumbria, the Mike Jones who posted the images of churches that we didn't know to the WAI churches forum?  So as to widen the search?  So actually there is only one image - the church forum one is the duplicate of your original.

I really don't know.  There is no question that one on the other site is a duplicate of mine, just didn't know it was being posted there.

It's not an issue, just wish I'd known about it.

It would also have been courteous if the photo had been acknowledged as your property.
