Thought it might be Bo Kaap in Cape Town but perhaps not quite colourful enough and that's not quite Table Mountain

Had a dream that I posted an image here and no one got it after weeks of guesses.

Originally I thought Bozhmy Novmanor but the shade of green on one of the fences didn't feel quite right

I'd like to post pictures to this thread but I'm a bit of a luddite. What do you guys do, take a screenshot or share a google maps streetview to imgur and then link it?

I take a screenshot and then post to postimg.cc

possibly of interest to members of this group, some of these are effectively "guess the state"

but they also gave me a part of brooklyn which trump won by 81 points (!!!) which seems tricky

(i am aware there are parts of brooklyn that are mega racist blue lives matter italians and such but having never been to any part of brooklyn i can't really discriminate and it all just looks like brooklyn to me)

15/21 though a good chunk of them were either barely right or close but no

yeah I was pretty good at guessing the state but not at guessing which parts of Florida went Biden

It's fine once I clicked through.
Instinctively thought Denver but those trees look like horse chestnuts so I think somewhere in the UK.

they're driving on the right. it's not the uk. and there's a bus lane which makes me think it's not the US.

I got 20 of 21 on that NYTimes thing, but I've also lived in a lot of different parts of the US, and if I haven't, I've been through them. My years of vagabondage pay off in such weird knowledge, I guess.

The normal rule of thumb for the UK is, if it looks like nowhere and everywhere at the same time then its Stoke On Trent
― cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 19:18 (three years ago) link
Not Stoke-on-Trent. It is a city, though, not a town.
― joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:20 (three years ago) link
No, if it looks like nowhere and everywhere at the same time - but worse - then its Stoke On Trent.

Looks like Manchester with the motorway right up next to terraces, if that is a motorway
