SKYLINE 27!

February 5th, 2007 by mike d. in skyline, Features

within a few years every miked reader will be able to recognize any skyline on Earth

A number of people recognized the satellite image of the Taj Mahal. Kurt grabbed it first though. Good job Kurt!

The skyline was Brighton, England. It was taken by Roland and I thought it would be unlikely if anyone had caught it. Except maybe Ben… I wasn’t sure if he had been to Brighton. Good job to the scientific searchers!

Let’s get right into the next challenge.

The skyline this week appears to be the cover of this band’s CD. I got an e-mail from another Mike D. asking if I believed my readers would be able to identify it. It’s going to be tough because it looks kind of arbitrary. But on the right hand side there appears to be some sort of distinct building. Discuss!
Skyline!

Satellite!

Good luck!

The Brighton skyline was a tough one I admit - I could have easily taken one of a much more recognisable landmark (or two) and included some clues to the country, but the shot I sent was just a random one I’d taken a while before the Skyline challenge even started.

I remember the satellite from last time there was a star fort in the contest. It’s Fort Bourtange in the Netherlands.

I’m lost on the skyline though.
