(International) Guess the Location (see rules post 1)

Not too far off but not very close, won't begin to give clues yet. Except I would say, don't forget that shadows in the tropics and southern hemisphere would follow different logic(s) than for places in the northern mid-latitudes. So keep that in mind.

So sorry, it was a sunny Saturday here and your obedient servant was on the golf course until now. So the country has now been established, it is Chile. But not Santiago which is inland some distance. Proceed.

That's it, Valparaiso. Also it is the second largest city in Chile after Santiago, the picture was a bit tricky because the coast runs east-west for a few miles there, hence the mid-day shadows pointing south and the ocean to the north in this westward view.

So if the previous poster would like to post one, if he says no later on, anyone else feel free, I will most likely be asleep as I live on the Pacific coast myself and it is now approaching 0100h.

Just try to pick a location that has some distinctive regional details to narrow down the possibilities.

Good call, the picture is taken on Patmos and shows the port of Skala. Behind the location of the photographer is the Shrine at the presumed location of the Cave of Patmos where John (of the final chapter of the New Testament) obtained the Revelation of the future that is often called the end times. This is famous for any number of images, the New Jeruslaem, the Beast, scenes of judgement, the four horsemen, trumpets, seals, Babylon, the number 666 etc. Some Biblical scholars have estimated that the Revelation (or Apocalypse) took place in or about 96 A.D. although some prefer an earlier date. The generally accepted date would pretty much mean that the Saint John who received these visions cannot be the same man as the Saint John of the four gospels and a later epistle.

Well, if the previous poster would like to take their turn, I will wait to see if we have a new contest, or if we need a new location for tomorrow perhaps. If they bow out, anyone is welcome to post one.

So that answers the question about the Danube. Anyway, it is a view of downtown Pittsburgh PA from the west, looking to the point where two rivers join to form the Ohio River which then flows west to join the Mississippi where Illinois, Kentucky and Missouri meet.

Go ahead anyone who would like to post.

So how does the clue relate to it then?
