No guesses? I'll try find another angle later this week.

didn’t see this ! will have a look tomorrow

Very little to go on here - the mass of apartment towers on the right make me think of Eastern Europe I guess...

IKEA store at a highway intersection in the mid distance narrows options considerably. Red tiled roofs suggest Mediterranean. That color scheme on the apartment towers matches some around Madrid. But having looked at five dozen options none quite matches. And I'm very worried that the nosebleed seats in that futbol stadium are a deathtrap.

nice catch re: ikea.

i was also thinking mediterranean.

rijeka ?

if it’s indeed rIjEKA it would make that Ikea a brilliant clue

With the IKEA crib, it's now a brute-force problem: search every IKEA, see if it's the right kind of intersection, get yourself oriented relative to the intersection, and try to find either the low-rise Plattenbau up the hill, or the 1960s concrete stadium for local sports off to the left.

Far too verdant to be Madrid surely

this isn't saying mediterranean to me. Western Europe for sure

Yeah, it doesn't look Mediterranean to me either.

Braga

haha, it's definitely that (I remember the stadium from Celtic playing them). damn, wrong again

wow, i think you nailed it

the Atlantic humidity through me off the scent

threw even

Yep, iconic stadium that

Braga it is!

Hats off to the Ikea spotter, didn't even notice that! Good work all round

Bravo!

I don't feel too bad about the Mediterranean thing as it's decidedly Northern Atlantic in the end.

Oh, missed this one entirely, yeah, love that stadium.

Still think its a death trap.

Looks European to me. Buildings on the left have a bit of a French Haussmann vibe to them, but then further on there's a group that looks more middle European. The tower with the strange roof is probably key.

Reminds me of Warsaw

Minneapolis.

more clouds pt. 2: same bridge, different view

Some really distinctive buildings there but I'm lost, except to say it has a northern European feel. The style of the cathedral towers could give the region perhaps...

Actually the domed towers on that cathedral seem to me more Spanish or Portuguese. But the rest of the pic certainly doesn't scream Spanish/Portuguese... There's what looks like a village in the top right hand corner, all slate-roofed, again making it feel more Northern European.

no more guesses ?

Santiago Chile

is it Paris?

The combo of the roofs and the church gives me Central Europe vibes, Czechoslovakia?

Zurich?

Having lived in Nantes, this looked really familiar to me. That looks like the Loire.

North end of Pont Mirabeau, Tours.

nicely done

Yeeeoo.

With the first image north end of the Pont Napoleon.

Or actually, from the Ile Simon that the Pont Napoleon passes over.

Oui exactement. Tower in the first pic just looks like a 70s block with a weird pitched roof added to match surrounding buildings.

right, i should have written "same river, different bridge"

sorry if that threw anybody off xp

damn i was so close

That building has a horrified face on the left hand side.
