Great, that means it's even less likely that it's somewhere notable xp.

I thought of a reason for the crazy density among the woodland left-of-centre. I think the forest is on higher ground than the buildings, so that the high-rises are in narrow, shallow canyons snaking back from the main city. Don't suppose this'll jog any memories?

Not A Coruna, in Galicia?

Bradford?

Ed, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:24 (fifteen years ago) link

Actually I think it is Keighley

Ed, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:25 (fifteen years ago) link

Correct first time!

Are you going to tell us what 91 is first?

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:30 (fifteen years ago) link

Oh yes!

91 is here - you should be able to see the distinctive shape from this

Well that's a relief. You have no idea how many hours I spent gazing at that photo, hoping the Eiffel Tower or the Pyramids would suddenly emerge into view

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:46 (fifteen years ago) link

Ha sorry. I know it was kind of an obscure one but people were successful at getting all kinds of obscure ones and I thought the shape kind of distinctive

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:48 (fifteen years ago) link

Is 94 Charlotte?

caek, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 15:29 (fifteen years ago) link

98=Roanoke Virginia, from Mill Mountain!

P.S. Hi dere!

doo dah, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:34 (fifteen years ago) link

damn. i was checking everything likely in New England and the mid-Atlantic, and stopped just short, at Lynchburg.

gabbneb, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:40 (fifteen years ago) link

98 is indeed Roanoke, well done! Surpisingly recognisable and distinctive perhaps

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:55 (fifteen years ago) link

I grew up there! More recognizable with the star, perhaps ;)

doo dah, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 17:11 (fifteen years ago) link

one month passes...

99. Ok so its hardly a city but I'm sure someone will get it!

new hope, pa?

909090909 Rivethed Brikkchin Reverk now DANZ (Mackro Mackro), Friday, 9 January 2009 16:34 (fifteen years ago) link

It isn't - but that is a very good guess!

cherry blossom, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:36 (fifteen years ago) link

91: Valdez, Alaska?

Eazy, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:43 (fifteen years ago) link

Oh, wait, I just saw the first 91 photo, and now I says, Halifax?

Eazy, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:45 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm guessing it has to be in the U.S. Right-side driving + use of word "State Law". Then again, maybe some provinces use the word "state" for sign purposes?

909090909 Rivethed Brikkchin Reverk now DANZ (Mackro Mackro), Friday, 9 January 2009 17:40 (fifteen years ago) link

and you know, american flags. minor details.

100. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/21/37173120_8298b74779.jpg?v=0

101: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3422/3211943005_e759c238cb_b.jpg

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 20 January 2009 13:07 (fifteen years ago) link

101: Glossop? It's not Bath is it?

caek, Tuesday, 20 January 2009 13:42 (fifteen years ago) link

Closer with the first guess. Wildly wrong with the second!

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:18 (fifteen years ago) link

I said it's not Bath! : )

Uh, Harrogate?

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:21 (fifteen years ago) link

A bit too hilly for Harrogate!

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:22 (fifteen years ago) link

#100 is hard - I don't even know what to guess at

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:23 (fifteen years ago) link

I don't actually know what Harrogate is like, but the photo seems a bit posher than a lot of the dumps I'm thinking of.

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:24 (fifteen years ago) link

101 looks a bit like Hebden Bridge to me.

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:25 (fifteen years ago) link

I was going to say Wakefield, yeah

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:25 (fifteen years ago) link

bah, you got it

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:26 (fifteen years ago) link

Torquay?

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:45 (fifteen years ago) link

Swansea.

Addis Ababa.

haha

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:43 (fifteen years ago) link

clue for #100: its in the UK.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:18 (fifteen years ago) link

99. still unguessed. And how did a tilt shift photo of it appear almost as soon as it was posted?!!

100. I feel like this is maybe in Cumbria?

101. Hebden Bridge yes!

102. Newton Abbot?

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:30 (fifteen years ago) link

102 I was thinking Devon too - Sidmouth? Torbay?

100 no, not Cumbria!

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:40 (fifteen years ago) link

There's something about 100 that makes me think its on the west somewhere (Strathclyde? Lancashire?)

And then I look at it again and I think of the south bank of the Thames somewhere east of Greenwich.

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:04 (fifteen years ago) link

Could be Birkenhead or other left Bank Merseyside locale?
