For privacy no pictures.
Today I heard a woman scream for help from above.
She called her cat, I think her cat was called “help”.

My third fall in the line of duty.
Yes, you may call me an idiot.
Not every day one has to share an outback dirt road with a gyrocopter and its blades need restraining. Multiple cameras/views.
As in Mad Max.

One advantage of time-lapse photos is the option to delete mishaps, wrong turns etc.
In photography, these are called raw pictures.
Meeting an See Mapillary
If you’re lucky and depart from Glückstadt, Germany, you might encounter a cruise ship on the Elbe. I caught a ship from the AIDA fleet.

Is it allowed to picture sleeping people from behind ?
let the mapillary police fine them!! xD, that can prove to court if you have a video about him running a red light (if you have a dashcam)

Mapillary meets Here
Grok:
A HERE driver (i.e., a vehicle from HERE Technologies that collects map data – often known as a “HERE True Car,” equipped with roof-mounted cameras and sensors) is a rare sight on the highway, similar to Google Street View cars or Apple mapping vehicles.There is no official or established “greeting rule” specifically for HERE drivers in any community (unlike, for example, Jeep drivers, motorcyclists, or certain car clubs who wave at each other). In forums like Reddit or mapping communities (Mapillary, OpenStreetMap), there’s also no mention of waving or flashing lights when spotting a HERE vehicle.That said, if you see one and feel excited (e.g., because you love mapping or just think it’s cool), a friendly greeting is perfectly fine and harmless – as long as it’s safe:
-
Briefly raise your hand (e.g., a small wave from the steering wheel) or a nod if you’re driving side by side.
-
Short high-beam flash (briefly flashing your headlights) – this is commonly used as a friendly signal on German highways (similar to how truck drivers greet each other).
-
But don’t overdo it: No big gestures that could distract you, and only if traffic conditions allow.
The driver in the HERE car is usually a professional focused on data collection and probably won’t wave back – but it might still make them smile.The Mapillary link you shared likely shows exactly such a photo of a HERE vehicle on the A9 or similar (at the coordinates near the Thuringia/Bavaria border). These sightings are always a highlight for mapping enthusiasts!If you want to spot these cars more often: HERE sometimes publishes driving schedules on their website ( HERE Car Drive Schedule | Map Data | Locations | HERE ), but in Germany, they’re usually out sporadically. Have fun with your next spotting!

Blurring serves to protect data privacy, but what if, in the Church of the Fourteen Saints, one of the saints is carrying his head in his hand, and automatic blurring fails?
Non proprietary imagery meets propietary imagery*
Thats pretty crazy I wonder what the odds of that are lol
It has happened to me several times that people were unfriendly to me while I did not know I was capturing their parking violations.

I have been stopped as a pervert, as a thief, and this sunday for the first time as a poacher. This is no job for the faint of heart.
Are we taking the correct runway ?
I don’t think so… Wait what is that.. OH S**T THAT’S A PEGA- signal lost
Three tanker trucks having fed the pigs.
Would life not be better if we were also fed like that ?
HOLY ferrari! (thanks to my buddy)
