A picture from where you live


Recommended Posts

Posted

I started to take pictures as an amateur photographer and since then I observed photography is something everybody loves, so I decided to start a thread here where everyone from the threads could post ONE pic from the city/town where lives.

I hope this can bring us beautiful and different landscapes that our fellow friends here see often and also and bring the people here more closer!

Post your pics and show your places! smile.gif

I heard lots about your city when I was teenagers, since I had a pen pal who lived in Nova Scotia, sadly, I can't remember her city... But her best friend was from Comeauville.

Wellington looks NICE!!

I'm from Toronto, but that's overplayed, so I'm going with my folks' birthplace in Seoul.

And going back hundreds of years, my ancestral roots deep in the heart of North Korea:

This is where I work (the building of my company appears in this picture), and I work at late night, so, I can see the bridge from the office's window. Nice!

Funny, if you didn't say anything, I would have thought that picture was taken in an Asian city.

The Sears and English wasn't a dead giveaway for a North American city?

Very cool B) Was she French? Comeauville is an Acadian village.

Well, yeah, but Tokyo has English words printed in places. I meant by the lighting style of the Christmas tree.

Well, Natalie Comeau... Curiously I remember more about the frined of my pen pal than my pen pal herself!!! How can be?

Where I live, Mt Maunganui (the Mount).

Actually, my house is right next that 2nd green hilly area in the pic.

Curiously, checking in Google Maps if I could remember the name of the town my pen pal was living at that time, I found a community nearby in Yarmouth County called Brazil Lake!!!

Now I love Nova Scotia even more!

Yeah, found a letter here. It was Lisa from Saulnierville!!!

Gosh! You guys posted such beautiful and sometimes even bombastic (especially in your case, Baron ;)) pictures that I do not dare to post pictures of my home town now. Does everyone here live in big cities or in towns with a stunning surrounding?

My home town Haan is pretty unspectacular, a town of 30,000 inhabitants crammed between the big cities of Düsseldorf, Wuppertal and Solingen in the densely-populated Rhine-Ruhr region. It has no beautiful lagoons or mountains, no spectacular buildings and right now not even snow which would be a nice backdrop for photos. But nevertheless, it's my home town. So I dare it and show what it looks like here:

This is a popular restaurant in my home town, serving traditional German food. It's a slate house typical for the "Bergisches Land", the region on whose edge Haan is situated.

And this is the Evangelic church in which I was christened and confirmed -- and in which I'll attend, as every year, the Christmas Mass on the late evening of December 24, the "Heiligabend" on which here in Germany the main Christmas celebrations take place.
