Bigger pic here, if you need it: http://flic.kr/p/bpT8sJJust a bit of fun with a slightly different view of a familiar scene, but who knows we might make a thread out of it...You'll get a point for the street where the photo was taken, plus a bonus point for the each of the two streets you can see reflected in the mirror. So three points in total up for grabs!Your only clue is that it is in Leeds....

Blimey indeed! That was quick. Congratulations Barfly, you pipped Phill to all 3 points by a cats whisker. I shall have to think up something (or somewhere) more obtuse..

Yes indeed, I thought I was going to win that one, I just got the location on street view and pressed post, then to my horror Barfly was already on the thread with his answer lol... Well gutted, but congrats to Barfly

Hehe. I knew exactly where it was and it seems I came across the thread a little before you, because I had to confirm the last two names on Google Earth before posting.
