You have to take the picture yourself (basically, don't take from websites). If it's a neighbourhood picture, take a picture that people can reasonably guess at. Not some back alley or some generic house. And make sure the picture takes in quite a bit (i.e. not a close-up of a bench or something) People just have to guess the neighbourhood, but for a city picture the winner has to name the street."

Yep, it is. Always liked that view of the small residential street with St. Patrick's towering in the background.

No. Way smaller. Ok, it's obscure enough, so I'll give a landmark. Nearest pub is the dropping well

Ok, I though the distinct framing of 3 rock might give it away but it might be too obscure. It's down Patrick Doyle Road from the windy arbor playground near the 9 arches
