Challenge 12: Twin Signals

Two places. One signal. You choose where to start.

Mrs. OSINT is chasing an unusual digital pattern, a strange signal that appeared in two completely different corners of the world.
One place was quiet, even charming.
The other, glittering and loud with luxury.

This time, you don’t have to solve both (unless you want to).
Choose the challenge that fits your comfort level:

Clue A – START HERE (Beginner Friendly)

Title: Whispers by the Water
Difficulty: Easy

"Later that evening, the signal reappeared... hidden in a place full of lights, lanterns, and palm trees."

Mrs. OSINT traced the first signal to this beautiful location, but something in the distance gave it away.

MISSION OBJECTIVE:

1. Identify the city and the iconic structure.
2. What country is this located in?
3. Can you identify any languages or cultural symbols in the image?
4. What tourism or hospitality chain does the building in the background belong to?
5. What architectural style or design elements stand out to you?
6. Where was this picture taken? Give me exact coordinates.

Submissions close Friday at 9AM ET.

Clue B – Feeling Confident? Try This One

Title: Signal from the Shore
Difficulty: Medium

"Earlier that day, at a misty harbor, Mrs. OSINT’s gear picked up the same digital interference. This time it was quieter. Hidden."

MISSION OBJECTIVE:

1. Name the city/town?
2. Where was this image taken? Provide coordinates.
3. What clues in the image suggest a specific region or climate?
4. Estimate the direction the photo was taken (e.g., facing north). What tells you that?
5. Is this location inland, coastal, or part of a river system? Prove your guess.
BONUS: Can you identify the name of any of the tugboats in the image? Who owns them?
