Scottish flag flying over the Edinburgh castle. That one was too easy unlike the stone sculpture in Germany. That one took a bit of searching.

Looks like Lindisfarne Castle from that angle near Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland.

I knew this one would be easy. One more detail about the German sculpture, it's steel not stone. I took this photo the first year the sculpture was displayed. It is raw steel and has developed a wonderful rust patina over the years.

Don't forget that I rode most of the passes during my five years in Germany.

Jealous. I've only driven a couple although I did find myself on a train through the mountains while driving from Berchtesgaden to Venice. It was a bit of a surprise to come to the end of the road at a train station thanks to a navi that I didn't realize was set to avoid toll roads. It was a cool experience.

Hmmm do you guys have some kinda search engine for pictures or something? :-)
You are quite quick on the answers…

It's called google lens

Post a picture you made yourself from an odd angle and it'll take weeks to find it

It's not always easy. Sometimes you have to watch for other clues in the picture like signs and language or focus on a certain area of unusual architecture. Historical landmarks are usually very easy since there are gazillion pictures on the web. Regardless, I find this thread very educational.
