I feel a bit bored, so since we (LWM) are international community, i really interested in our geographical spread.
So i'm offering to make a couple (may be one, why not) of photos - view from your windows, some interesting places near your home, work, etc. And it would be definitily better, if you tell us your country and city name (no private info:) ) Don't be shy to add more description to your photos:)

Starting with me, this is backyard of my university. Not the best photo, but it's just a beginning of spring, so paints are not bright:D
To show you it's beauty, there are some photos of main campus in my album:

Actually, it's pretty big, there is only one campus' backyard on photo. And we have huge forest near, as you see, with a squirrels jumping on us :D

I would be really happy if even one person will be challenged to this "flashmob" :D | This is pretty close to where I live(Toronto, Canada)

Encouraged me to climb up a hill to grab a photo of my city.
These photos were taken in Wellington, New Zealand. So 15,000 kilometers from Chelyabinsk ;)

You can find the photos there. The first photo is a view over the city from some old WWII gun pits up on a hill.
The second photo is a temporary memorial for soldiers who fought in the wars, to commemorate ANZAC day. It is located in the botanic gardens and I decided to take that picture when I was walking on my way down to the city since it looked interesting. | for Corey:
In the second one, is it one soldier per cross? Haven't seen that sort of memorial before.. it looked kinda strange :p | for virtual_vitrea:
Yes it is one soldier per cross. There are three plots of the crosses, 2 behind where I was standing that are slightly larger than that one but the sun was on that side, so much harder to try and get a picture of them. | for Corey:
Dear Lord, is this heaven? Nature is so beautiful! Really, so green and blue! | for Hoxton:
Haha, fortunate to have had a good run of weather. Usually the sky is cloudy and it is incredibly windy. Wellington is the windiest city in the world on average ;)
As for the green, we are also very fortunate as we have a large town belt that wraps around the city. It is prohibited to construct on most sections of the town belt so there are a large number of walking tracks and green spaces very close to town. |
