Found. Kodachrome slide dated October 1980. Unmistakably the Needles Rocks off the Isle of Wight. Taking a boat trip out to see the Needles is a tourist "must-do".

View west from the top of Doherty Slide in Oregon's far south.
Finally bought another flat bed scanner (Epson V600) to digitize my XPan negatives. Still struggling with HP5, definitely not your low contrast landscape film :-)
Found unbranded and undated slide showing what looks like the rear garden of a terraced house. I think someone was trying out an ultra-wide-angle lens.
Found this turtle on Pacheco Pond. I had to take the shot through some reeds, hence the foreground blur, and just in time, as it took it's characteristic slide into the water, seconds after the picture.
Judging by the size, at least a foot in length, I'm guessing it's a female.

From the Tate Website:
"For Carsten Höller, the experience of sliding is best summed up in a phrase by the French writer Roger Caillois as a ‘voluptuous panic upon an otherwise lucid mind’. The slides are impressive sculptures in their own right, and you don’t have to hurtle down them to appreciate this artwork. What interests Höller, however, is both the visual spectacle of watching people sliding and the ‘inner spectacle’ experienced by the sliders themselves, the state of simultaneous delight and anxiety that you enter as you descend.
To date Höller has installed six smaller slides in other galleries and museums, but the cavernous space of the Turbine Hall offers a unique setting in which to extend his vision. Yet, as the title implies, he sees it as a prototype for an even larger enterprise, in which slides could be introduced across London, or indeed, in any city. How might a daily dose of sliding affect the way we perceive the world? Can slides become part of our experiential and architectural life?
Höller has undertaken many projects that invite visitor interaction, such as Flying Machine (1996) that hoists the user through the air, Upside-Down Goggles (1994/2001) that modify vision, and Frisbee House (2000) - a room full of Frisbees. The slides, like these earlier works, question human behaviour, perception and logic, offering the possibility for self-exploration in the process."
Found Kodachrome slide dated July 1964 showing "Pension Olga" ("Pension" in this context is a French word for a small hotel).
Found Kodachrome slide dated April 1971. Clearly the same two children as other photos in this batch but now a year or two older. Given that the only date I have is the processing date on the slide I suspect they must have had the same film in the camera for quite a while.
Probably the best way to spend a 36°C (97°F) day. In the water at the Beachouse, Glenelg, South Australia.
