Hay can you give us another clue for the 27th July?
― Tim, Monday, 24 August 2020 12:17 (four years ago) link
27 July looks northern European, possibly Scandi: Sundsvall?

I can see a two-spired cathedral on July 27th photo. Is it Fulda?

Sheffield?

no those roofs are extremely mitteleuropäische
― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Tuesday, 25 August 2020 17:49 (four years ago) link
the chimney stack in front of the hills does look a lot like the hope valley cement works though!

that does look like dear old Blighty to me but mind you I've never been to central europe
― Temporary Erogenous Zone (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 25 August 2020 18:35 (four years ago) link
i think the roofs are too steep (they're designed for snow) and too red (they're slate in the UK).
― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Tuesday, 25 August 2020 18:41 (four years ago) link
I spent ages thinking it was somewhere in the UK too - the neoclassical pile towards the right hand side of the Jul 27 pic, but (as Caek said) I'd be amazed if those roofs were in the UK. That little two-spired church spotted by FGTI (visible between the two left-most tree trunks on the Jul 27 pic, I reckon it's probably too small to be the town cathedral?) makes me think Germany or nearby.
"Germany or nearby" too big. I am left with absolutely no clue where it might be.
― Tim, Wednesday, 26 August 2020 10:09 (four years ago) link
Could it be Stuttgart? That church could be the St. Maria Kirche?
― Tim, Wednesday, 26 August 2020 10:22 (four years ago) link
what are those buildings (or is it one complex?) with those two minaret-like chimneys or whatever they are in the centre of yesterday's pic? is it something industrial?
(there's a church somewhat to the left of it/them that looks Central European to me)
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Wednesday, 26 August 2020 10:38 (four years ago) link
I put Stuttgart Factory chimneys into google image search and got these, from yer actual kraftwerk (Heizkraftwerk Stuttgart-Gaisburg in this case) and they could be the same? The complex slightly behind them in yesterday's pic could be the Mercedes plant / museum.

which might mean that church, if we're looking at the same one, is the Evangelisches Pfarramt Gaisburg:

it may be cheating a little bit because I remember you had plans of going there like a year ago - but could it be Guangzhou? (if it’s not that it’s definitely in that region, probably more to the south than to the north of it)

Off the cuff guess is Salvador, but this needs some thinking

Port-au-Prince?

It’s Haiti, I’m guessing Port-au-Prince, although the Coca Cola van leads me to Mirebalais.

it's in Europe but not the UK. A well-known city, though not this bit of it.

you've got to wait before you start giving out hints! i just wrote a long post and now it is consigned to history.
i got that it wasn't in the UK. driving on the right and the street signs are wrong.
