- Murraysburg street scene.
- Scope & Content:
-
A tree-lined dirt road with electricity poles and street lights. Several cars are parked on both sides of the road, often in the shade of the trees. On the right is a lamp pole used as a fingerpost. The approximate directions (but not distances) to 8 settlements are shown. Based on triangulation, the location can be identified as Murraysburg. At extreme right is the blurred image of a person walking towards the camera. No obvious astronomical content or connection with Boyden Observatory. PLB16_0010 and PLB16_0016 are related.
