Here is Winterstale pix:

Thanks JP!!!

Once it is in a photo gallery here, you right click on the picture, depending on your browser, to get the URL of the picture..

The other way which may be easier but does not render a high res photo is

Use the full editor
In the grey section at the bottom of the window you will see Attachment Manager
Click on Attachment manager
It will open another window and allow you to drag and drop from your computer or use a file select a file
Once you have completed that hit done
And you are finished.
When you post your response the picture will be attached at the bottom

And now Winterstale you are in the game... and I am clueless

Well....I have another one from the same place but it would likely give it away....

Why don't you see if you can post it?? Then you will know better how to post in future.

For the record I am going Asia
The Hotel is named Mandarin Oriental.... i think
and the fountain looks eastern

You are in the right direction, Tom....

I stayed at the Mandarin while there....

are the sidewalks very wide and the place very clean

LOL......yes......and you cannot chew gum

or eat smelly fruit and you used to get haircuts at the airport if your hair was below the collar for the guys anyway lol

The airport is epic...

Well, clues like that make it way too easy.

Singapore.

Dan...Welcome, You are up!

OK, here's an unusual building. Click on the image to see it larger.

I was going to say Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, but having googled images I'm not sure.

Nope. Here's a wider shot, not taken by me.

Remember TomB's rules....no Google image lookup for first 18 hours of original photo post!

I believe that is a building in Graz, Austria - the Kunsthaus

HaHa Mike - Busted

For the new folks
- we have an 18 hour no google rule (honor system) so all time zones have a fair shot
- make sure you photo does not have the name of the location in the file name
- it has to be a picture you have taken
- after a guess or two it is polite to give a hint... The more obscure the hint the better.

We have enjoyed traveling the world through other people's eyes during this period of the germ.
We welcome you, and look forward visiting the places you have seen.

All lurkers welcomed

Correct, from Wikipedia:
Owing to its shape contrasting with its surroundings, it is known in local vernacular as the "Friendly Alien"

Great to hear from you, Zanshin! Hope you are doing much better, though like so many of us, not sailing back in de lions.
We know you have tens of thousands of photos. Tease us with one?

jphart - thanks for the nice words!

Here's one I took a while ago, close to where I have a flat in a very scenic location.

Pfalzgrafenstein Castle on the Rhine

When I took this picture it was like 25 degrees and a freezing mist
I like your picture a whole lot more!

This is so much fun! Thank you everyone for posting pictures

We need a new photo. So post one Sunny!

Technically, Zanshin has to yes or no to my guess before the next picture should be posted.
Albeit, I am 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999% I am correct. Let us give Zanshin a chance to chime in and hopefully give a little back story on what we are looking at.

TomB - you have it. I have a place in Bingen am Rhein, just a couple of miles away. It is the best wine country in Germany and the Rhine river has always been an important trade route and border in Europe.

Zanshin,

Truly beautiful spot and you could not be more correct about the wine!

For our next destination we go the movies! In this case not the movie, but the backstory... and oh what a back story!
I feel like the guy on TCM introducing a classic... And in fact it was a classic.

Where would one have to go to cross this bridge?

The power lines make me chuckle.

I'm going to have to defend myself here against calumnious suggestion that I might have broken the rules I believed I knew the answer, unfortunately incorrectly, and simply used google to try and confirm my thoughts. Having learnt that I was probably incorrect I didn't go on to attempt to find the correct answer. Therefore I believe, your honour, that I acted within the spirit and letter of the law.

And while I'm here being petty and pedantic... The earlier answer should have been the Trevi Fountain, not the Trivi.

Mike,

As self-assigned rule maker and that power was seconded by Carol, who is truly the last word on the board, it is within my power to totally exonerate you on the charge against you. Considered it done!

Go forth and guess more!

As for the shortfall in spelling it is far from me to judge anyone on speling or gramor. Just ain’t my thing specialy foreign palabras.

TravelHat

Telephone lines are every photographer’s nightmare!
Dug this shot up from when the bridge was famous.
No lines to be seen.

Two hours and no guesses - Time for hint!
What do we know so far...
- The Backstory of a Classic Movie will tell us the location

Here is hint #2

Great visual clue.

I'm gonna say Puerto Vallarta.

Puerto Vallarta I believe is correct. Night of the Iguana. Very good clue!

As far as the famous couple did Richard Burton cross with a Elizabeth Taylor, just not on screen.

I’m sure Tom will tell us the whole story.

Ellen is correct! Richard and Elizabeth were quite the number.
They were all over the tabloids with their steamy relationship.
Only problem was they were both married.

When Burton got the lead role in Night of the Iguana, Taylor followed him down to Puerto Vallarta, as did the movie press.
The movie studio had a fit, and the Mexican authorities were outraged.
Mexico laws were still heavily influenced by the Church.
In fact the Pope called them out publicly on their debauchery.

Burton solved the problem by buying Casa Kimberly so the two were no longer living together.
Burton's apartment was on one side of the street and Taylor's house on the other.

The rest is history. It was not a Camelot ending.

DanS was the first to chime in.

BTW - took both the pics to make the clue. PhotoShop is great.

Yeah, I knew the Night of the Iguana story from my dad, who spends his winters in Puerto Vallarta.

Hmm, my stash of photos is a bit thin. Let's try this one.

Well the bus says New York City and the umbrella says Astor place. I think the cube is around 29th.

Well done. Damn, I didn't look closely enough to see those clues. Astor Place actually merges into 8th Street. The cube sculpture is called Alamo, and it rotates if you push hard enough. The brown building is Cooper Union, my alma mater. Beyond the traffic light on the left is St. Marks Place, a major hippy hangout back in the day.
