well done or something it is Bangalore's MG road

@cherry blossom: the area on the right is a parade ground that belongs to the military iirc, but you can see the floodlights of the cricket stadium in the background

(Xp) Bengaluru I should say, apologies. Found the stadium but cant nail the spot

Nice one Jibe! Here I was waking up and expecting to have to field clues lol. I tried to make my submission a little harder (America town in Okinawa which has a lot of English/Roman signs) but I obviously failed at that lol.

Certainly feels northern European but something doesn't look quite right for England, I might be wrong

It does looks like England. Stafford's not a city though.

I did wonder about that. It has that central England feel to it though. Stoke-on-Trent?

Great!I was wondering about the church/tower's shape on the left but I didn't see any cyrillic on the bridge's sign (...ITTI) or the building on the left (...OSIA) but it's not far from Russia after all

it's the UK, and pretty sure I've driven through that junction, or one just like it, is it Liverpool?
― Bastard Lakes (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Friday, 5 March 2021 19:38 (three years ago) link
My first thought was Leeds
― calzino, Friday, 5 March 2021 19:41 (three years ago) link
actually scratch Leeds, the junction approaching Beeston I was thinking of has a view of the ugly Leeds skyline.
― calzino, Friday, 5 March 2021 19:53 (three years ago) link
nottingham?

Got it, heading into Bradford
― or something, Friday, 5 March 2021 23:08 (three years ago) link
Stupid question but are you manually blurring the number plates or are these from google street view?
― that's not my post, Saturday, 6 March 2021 01:42 (three years ago) link
They're from google streetview, which autoblurs number plates (at least most of the time). Images are as is!
― cherry blossom, Saturday, 6 March 2021 12:59 (three years ago) link
oh I knew I'd seen it before. I made several journeys through that junction taking my dog to the Bradford PDSA a couple of years back.
― calzino, Saturday, 6 March 2021 13:01 (three years ago) link
― or something,
Correct, Bradford it is xp
― cherry blossom, Saturday, 6 March 2021 13:02 (three years ago) link
it's a lot prettier approaching the Keighley side of Bradford through the beautiful desolation of Bronte country.
― calzino, Saturday, 6 March 2021 13:18 (three years ago) link
I didn't pick the best shot thats for sure!
― cherry blossom, Saturday, 6 March 2021 14:17 (three years ago) link
I didn't mean to pick one with a junction for Bradford because of the next choice

Looks like US signage. Palm trees. Looks a bit green for California. Maybe Florida?

Could be anywhere along the Gulf Coast tbh
― it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Sunday, 7 March 2021 00:29 (three years ago) link
As an ex-Floridian my first thought was that's Florida, but I would say East Coast. Boca Raton or Delray Beach, somewhere around there.

US cities are the toughest to find, so many of them

i want to say those are florida east coast railway tracks, but every time i drop down beside them in street view the landscaping is rougher

Pompano Beach, never heard of it. Thanks to the clues above I dropped at several crossroads in florida with a highway running parallel to the tracks before stumbling across it
― or something, Sunday, 7 March 2021 02:18 (three years ago) link
Awesome! I spent a lot of time in Pompano back in the day. It's two towns south of Boca Raton, so I was close. That was tricky because along those railroad tracks, even within the same city, there are some very skanky stretches as well as some nicely landscaped ones as in the photo.
― Josefa, Sunday, 7 March 2021 02:26 (three years ago) link
Good work! Yeah I did think after I posted it that I should have picked a less landscaped stretch
