Brisbane 1944... mystery photo location?

Attention brisbane history enthusiasts!

We have been sent this intriguing historical photo with the intention of trying to locate where it was taken...

"...I have an old photo of my Dad in 1944 in Brisbane. Can you tell where in Brisbane he is from this photo? Thanks ahead of time. This is genealogical research I am doing. Dad died in August. Any help would be appreciated."

Hi all friends,

I want to leave you know of my new website dedicated to geotagging http://www.whereisthepicture.com

It's a new and free service that I created to geotag your pictures and is very intuitive and easy to use and best of all, you do not need to install anything on your computer because everything is done from the web.

To use it, just upload a picture and if your photo has GPS information whereisthepicture.com shows you, in Google Maps, where the photograph was taken.
If your photo does not have GPS information, maybe because it's was taken with a camera old whereisthepicture.com gives you the ability to geotag your own photography.

Finally, whereisthepicture.com allows you to send your geotagged picture to your friends so they can show where your photo was taken.

I hope you like!

regards,
Paco Fernandez
