          Cor blimey, that was difficult!

          I'll post an easier one shortly!
          That was the intention
          It doesnt help much with the internet connection you got.
          I'm really suprised KvH didn't get it first.

            Well, you may have noticed my technique is slightly different from KvH's. I look at the pic first and try to deduce as much as poss from it, then narrow down the scope with guesses (and others' mistakes!), until I feel I have sufficient info to start Googling. If I don't see tha answer in 2 or 3 minutes, I give up until I have more info. E.g., for your last one, I doubt whether I spent more than about 5 minutes altogether Googling (which was also why I didn't respond in a few days, as I had no new info I could work on) .

              Not really much different from the way I do it.. except that was difficult to deduce from the pic. From the desert-type flora I was thinking Iran or Caucasus to begin with..

              Besides, the key was that I was too lazy to look through all the Kuriles at first, then you went and narrowed it down to the Northern Kuriles while I was asleep and Brian was awake.

                That's a lot like what I do, especially when stumped. I've often let it be narrowed down and romped on it

                I knew that pic would be a big stumper. It's amazing how different the views are, depending on which side you are looking from.

                ...and KvH, here's the link I promised

                    Could it be in the Italian part of Switzerland somewhere?

                                Hmmm by the way you think, I'm guessing neither the French nor the Spanish sides. Andorra perhaps.

                                ... bit of looking later...

                                Yup, Village de Pal, Andorra.
