    Name of the place please..?

    If clues are needed then they will come with more questions . . :)

    Good Luck!

    PS

    I have a picture of 946 kB, 11522 x 751 pixels but the max I can attach here is 2 MB, 2560 x 1600 pixels (the 11522 pixel width is the problem for uploading as an attachment). So I have put it in my gallery but there it's automatically downsized to 75838 bytes, 2500 x 162 pixels :( - - Sorry..!!

    Pictures looked septentrional, so when looking for a northern naval hero I saw the same chin....

    ....and a statue with the same clothes as your second pic and the face and hat from both your pics of him.

    After that it was easy, even the Hvide Ørn is mentioned here. This info made it possible to check the pictures out.

    Learned a lot, know now what Tordenskjold's soldiers are . . :)

    Brave and smart man, but stupid too, died in a duel at the age of 29.

    Thanks Raggi, it was a nice teaser..!!

    Cheers,
    Angel

    OK, I've cutted the thing in 11 pieces with some overlap so you can use the above linked picture for the general vieuw and the below for the details.

    Beach_x1.JPG Beach_x2.JPG Beach_x3.JPG Beach_x4.JPG

    Beach_x5.JPG Beach_x6.JPG Beach_x7.JPG Beach_x8.JPG

    Beach_x9.JPG Beach_x10.JPG Beach_x11.JPG

    Who knows this beach and the name of the place . . ? ?

    Good Luck!

    Not Black Sea but the right continent.

    We make a 90° turn and the picture continues. As you can see there is a overlap with the previous picture serie. We see a seaport now.

    Now you have to name the seaport too, but that makes it easyer I guess . . :)

    The above linked picture is for the general vieuw and the ones below are for the details, they have overlap.

    Beach_2_1.JPG Beach_2_2.JPG Beach_2_3.JPG Beach_2_4.JPG

    Beach_2_5.JPG Beach_2_6.JPG Beach_2_7.JPG

    Raggi please help searching and give some clues, and maybe we need Richard, Guillermo, Teddy, John, etc. etc. etc. too . . ? ?

    Come on guy's . . . :p

    Good Luck :)

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You might call much of Florida, which is also "low country", Concretia. We do at least use nice colors on the concrete. Check out Miami Beach Hotel Row.

    Please show us a nice picture of it that looks any better (in your eyes is OK ;)) than the concrete in Oostende.

    Picture of the coast please, not the pool or boulevard . . :)

    PS - Please look at this for something else at the Belgian coast.

    In 18.. he was the "King" of this place:[​IMG]


    in 18.. (one year later) he was already dead.........

    In 1817 ALL people of his "Kingdom" had the same rights, and the same income!!!

    Later they planted some crop (as shown above and below) to make postbags. (mainly in the region,lesser at this special place)

    Today every family has a own satellite phone.
