Asuncion it is
the first pic is immediately to the southeast (I always aim to get subsequent views pretty close to the first view)

It was an Amandau outlet, but one that is now closed down. That wasn't intentional, I only realised when I forgot where it was and had to play my own city in order to find it again to find a nearby image for the second view

I was thinking not Asunción because it had been mentioned ITT already. (other cities in Paraguay are pretty odd it seems)

Asunción was a work in progress! I was basically waiting for the next view to get confirmation (although, granted, it could have potentially also been a different Paraguayan city)

Partly I was away from my computer for most of last week, partly I'd forgotten where it actually was, and partly I wanted to give a chance for someone to find the view (even though I couldn't remember where it was myself)
It appears quite a few of the other cities in Paraguay are just extensions of Asuncion!

Almost certainly Britain. Bottom half of the wall looks like Bath Stone or Cotswold Stone which doesn't make it far out of those areas.

Road marking are not typical for the uk though - or those sluice valve markers.

sv means stop valve ime but yes it does indicate an english speaking country

Here's a game for all you OSINT fans, in the photo below is a location you have to find I'll give you a hint it's in donbass and you have to come back with the exact location in the replies.

first instinct is New Zealand. maybe on an estuary? no time to search right now tho

pittosporums (i think) & a tī kōuka/cabbage tree would suggest so... getting a south island vibe. is corrugated iron roofing even a thing outside the south pacific?

driving on the left side of the road

So the road markings from the first picture are a clearway which is also a bike lane. Also applies to Australia.

an australian c2 line has evenly spaced breaks 3m on 3m off. at least in nsw. looks like nz.
― micah, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 23:33 (one year ago) link
The vehicle registration ticket in the bottom corner of the windscreen looks like New Zealand

Dunedin?
― Zelda Zonk, Wednesday, 7 December 2022 23:45 (one year ago) link
Could be Lyttelton

So, Christchurch.
― nate woolls, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:10 (one year ago) link
I wasn't sure if it was Kandallah or Newlands looking across to East Harbour, so Wellington.
― Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:11 (one year ago) link
Yeah I don't think it is Lyttelton/Banks Peninsula, it looks much too populated.
― nate woolls, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:14 (one year ago) link
dunedin fits the geography, i couldn't find the castle though
― ciderpress, Thursday, 8 December 2022 00:28 (one year ago) link
Also the neighbourhood watch signs on the pole look very New Zealand

built single-handedly over a 15 year period in the 50s and 60s!

good work, was tough to find good views for that one, especially near the castle house itself

what ARE we looking at here - artificial snow ski slope kind of thing?
― StanM, Friday, 23 December 2022 13:16 (one year ago) link
more like the stands of a stadium, no?

I think the top of a ski slope looks right - the left hand side as we look at it has nothing behind it and the right hand side drops away
― Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Friday, 23 December 2022 16:24 (one year ago) link
Looks like a solar farm?
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Friday, 23 December 2022 16:26 (one year ago) link
To me it’s a river above the seating of a sports ground, with a railway line between. Looks like Europe maybe?
― assert (matttkkkk), Friday, 23 December 2022 16:46 (one year ago) link
Solar farm is a good call
― Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Saturday, 24 December 2022 14:09 (one year ago) link
Yeah I don't think it can be a stadium, the shape is irregular and it's in a steep slopeThe rest of the terrain is pretty flat if you look at the horizon but that "railway" (that I took to be road at first) looks like a funicular ?
― Nabozo, Saturday, 24 December 2022 14:29 (one year ago) link
Only viewing on my phone and not able to have a better look but from memory the big cemetery in Stuttgart is on a hill and has a funicular running behind it.
