Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[passedpawn]

If using google image search found both instantly for you, why are you using that anyways?

The first post said this is an honor system, if people cheat that's their choice to not make it fun.

I'm not using it to find the answers. Hence, why I suck so much I was responding to Matt's comment that his pic wouldn't come up on Google image search.

You say you found the one I posted of the ballpark? I have plenty of pics of St. Louis but all have the Arch in them (too easy) and the ones I took from inside the top of the Arch were all correctly identified as St. Louis by Google even though they were my pics.

This is what happens when I Google Image search that image of the ballpark I posted, nothing related to St. Louis found:

Click the "Pages that include image". Says St. Louis right there. You can see the picture right there.

Sorry for the quality, but its a photo of an old postcard. Here we go:

I ended up using Google reverse image search so I won't give it away, but I will say that my attempts to solve this using conventional means were WAAAAAYYYY off...

Duluth Minnesota?

I google searched 'vertical lift bridge harbor surf break', and I found a view that looked very similar but from the opposite direction. Those surf breaks are very distinctive.

That's the city! Its a great pace to visit, and there are a few great breweries there.

You're up MK

Salt Lake City?

Area 51?

Outside of Minot, ND?

Looks like my lawn, but my view out my windows doesn't include those structures

New Mexico? Something to do with the Manhattan project?

 

[Newsman]

I'm going to say White Sands, NM?

 

[Terek]

the jet fuel plant in nevada?

 

[Newsman]

I'm out... I couldn't wait for the answer, so I Googled the image. I have to say that's not as easy as the OP thinks.

Toshe Station, Tatooine

where whiny bitch Luke Skywalker wanted to go get some power converters

Hanford WA

Hanford WA

That's technically correct, though I was hoping someone could name the building as the Hanford site is a couple hundred square mile area.

It is a national landmark and the site of a human civilization milestone

New Mexico? Something to do with the Manhattan project?

Very very close ideologically. It is the culmination of the Manhattan project technology.

I'm going to run with the words, "That's ..... correct" and post a pic. Just give me a few mins or an hour and I'll have one up.

That was a tough one. The "nuclear" part of your screen name helped, although I still spent a good amount of time trying various Google words. I didn't cheat though, promise! I eventually got it with, "nuclear power plant cubes" and it was result number 800 or something.

Okay here is a sunset. We'll start with that and see how the guessing goes.

I guess being a washington native in the nuclear industry makes it seem more recognizable to me than it actually is. It's the B Reactor in the Hanford Reach National Monument. Very Very cool museum, and where all of the plutonium used to make every nuclear weapon (including trinity, fat man, and little boy) was made.

I'm going to throw two guesses to narrow it down. Tahiti, or an island off the coast of south China

 

[HarborTownBrewing]

Tahiti is closer, but you still need to go further West, away from Asia

Flathead lake Montana

 

[te-wa]

Westport, NZ

 

[passedpawn]

That's the lagoon on Guilligan's Island for sure.

I think it is a tough one, so I'll add this much: you can see two countries here. And neither country is one of the American continents.
