The letter Q

Melbourne, Australia, designer Rhett Dashwood:

Over the course of several months beginning October 2008 to April 2009 I've spent some of my spare time between commercial projects searching Google Maps hoping to discover land formations or buildings resembling letter forms. These are the results of my findings limited within the state of Victoria, Australia.

Links go to Google Maps satellite views of the letters:

Locations: a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z


The Telegraph offers the images as a slideshow: Rhett Dashwood's Google Maps alphabet -

Nice choices.
