Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[flipster]

Back to the roots: name that skyline!

Atlanta

 

[flipster]

wrong country - not Atlanta

The view looks like London from Greenwich Park although don’t recognise some of the buildings. But I’ll go with London.

 

[flipster]

Closer than Atlanta .. but it's not London or on the British Isles.

Frankfurt?

 

[flipster]

Frankfurt (Main) it is - you're on!

I took this pic of the "Mainhattan skyline" (how she's called by the locals) about 10km to the west last week. We had kind of a good view during our stroll that day.

 

[govner1]

Just curious, isn’t poked up?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Frankfurt?

Next picture please

 

[Pkrd]

Sorry, life happens.

Here you go.

Alps?

 

[Pkrd]

Thats a good question. Apparently not quite according to the interweb (because I had no idea).

I also didn't realise "Alps" was actually a specific place and not a generic term for mountain range. We have the "Southern Alps" here in NZ, it's not them.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Dolomites, lake Garda

 

[flipster]

Varenna, Lake Como, Dolomites aka Southern Limestone Alps, Italy

Close. Wrong side of the Moto Guzzi factory.

Then... it must be Lecco!

Have you been there?
It's about the distance Franz-Josef Collingwood from me, only with more motorway through Austria and South Tyrol ...

Mandello Del Lario

Lecco is correct.

Me and another Guzzi nut spent a few days there 10 odd years ago. Mandello apparently isn’t good for much apart from the Guzzi stuff(which is excellent).

You’re up.

Auckland NZ

 

[flipster]

Auckland is correct!
This was obviously too easy...

Aucklamd is correct!

Vancouver from the North Shore with the Seabus coming into Lonsdale.

 

[Pkrd]

Nope

 

[flipster]

My girlfriend's AppleTV screensaver suggested "flight over Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong"

 

[Pkrd]

Hong Kong it is. Your turn Flipster.

 

[flipster]

Name the building!

Carcassonne

 

[flipster]

Nay, it's not Carcassonne.
