One of my favorite threads on this sub-forum is the "Photos From TL-191" thread. I've been having so much fun with it for the past couple of years, and with it's rapidly growing post count, it's clear that I'm not alone.
Not only do I want to keep that one going; I was wondering about possibilities to apply the same concept (pictures that represent scenes/events/society from an AH story) to other popular alternate history stories, and start a similar thread for it.
However, I'm having trouble thinking of a good one to center on. TL-191 has so many advantages for this sort of thing; it combines broad, globe-spanning applicability with a degree of parallelism that makes finding relevant pictures relatively simple. There was an attempt a while back at a similar thread for "For Want of a Nail," but that, unfortunately, didn't see much activity (I wish I could contribute to it myself, but I haven't finished reading the book). There was also one for "Decades of Darkness," but it got locked; maybe there's room for another crack at it.
In the meantime, I thought I'd field some ideas. What other popular AH stories (published or posted here on this site) would have good potential for a photo thread? I've thrown out a few poll options to get the ball rolling.
