For future entries, should I stick to buildings/structures? Or should I pull up other images I have?

Re: Identify this structure

No fair changing the map scale or moving the map.

I have no idea--just letting you know that I did see it but won't be venturing a guess (but let us know, eventually).

For future entries, should I stick to buildings/structures? Or should I pull up other images I have?

Which ever you wish--they have all been interesting.

Re: Identify this structure

Here's the Google map of the one I posted earlier:

Re: Identify this structure

After searching the web a bit and taking a cue off the Congress building in Brazil I believe the latest image is Parliament House, Australia.  I will admit I had to zoom out of the Google map to even get close on this one.  It is a neat looking complex.

Re: Identify this structure

Is this the Mosque of Hassan II in Casablanca, Morroco? I initially guessed something in the part of the Iberian Peninsula under Moorish control because something about the architecture in your picture made me think that.

Re: Identify this structure

Until longboy can get some better images this one will have to do.

Any takers on this image?

It's really the whole center of the image.  The location comprises of several buildings.
