Friday Mystery Place – vol 26

Sorry for being a day late…  Or course, last week’s Friday Mystery Place was one of the easier ones and there was a correct answer pretty quickly from James McEwan of Fiction Illuminates Truth, who knew that it was Nubble Lighthouse on Cape Neddick and shared some background information on this oft-photographed location.

This week should prove a smidge more difficult…

Where do these canons stand?

I think that guessing the country is pretty straightforward; the city may be more difficult…

I’m curious to find who can identify this gate without resorting to a Google image search 🙂

Technical Details

This image was captured with a Canon EOS 5D Mk II and an EF 24-105mm f/4L lens.  The exposure settings were at 1/125 seconds at f/10 and 400 ISO.

      You’ve got the city! Where in Leiden is this gate?

        Ah, sorry! It is at intersection between Sebastiaandoelen and Groenhazengracht. It is easy to reach through Rembrandt straat and close to the market area. 🙂

        Correct! It’s the Doelenpoort (aka St. Jorispoort) looking across the Groenhazengracht toward the Doelengracht. Well done!!

    OK I don’t know what it is and I really want to know! This is gorgeous.
    It looks like Italy to me. 🙂

      Canals, but not Italy…
