Not for our eyes
      #1215973 - 08/07/08 08:19 AM

The images we, GE users, are not allowed to see, are usually subjected to some form of digital distortion, like this:



(Unfortunately, the photomosaic also covers this wonderful building, the Maritime Museum - there is nothing secret about it, as far as I know:

)

A very popular Dutch blog today alerted its readers to this place:



Apparently, sometimes a more subtle distortion technique is used (the clone tool ), like here



and here



I wonder what kind of secrets my government is trying to hide from me here.

Can you find the place? GE picture, please.

Well done, joachim!

Nice to see an uncensored pic of the navy complex, farrelli.

It's probably very hard to find if you can't read Dutch and don't know a thing about the Dutch blogosphere, so here is the url of the blog: geenstijl.nl

It looks like the censorship is gone now (or much more subtle), we'll never know what it was they censored.
