#225

Most of you here are familiar with the game, but here's a quick run-down of the rules just in case. I've cooked up a brand new batch of fresh 225's, piping hot and straight out of the oven. Your job is to let them cool, take a nibble, and if you're feeling adventurous, match the number to the city it was taken in. Here's a menu of seven possibilities from the &7 archive, listed in alphabetical order: Brooklyn, Chicago, New York City, Pittsburgh, Portland, Siena, Venice. Reasons, guesses, details, or alibis? Just feeling lucky? Few will win; all are welcome. Answers will be posted at the end of the week. Good luck!

a)















b)














c)















d)

Therese!!!

I've actually been looking for you! I found your old cd not long ago, and I decided to seek you out. I just did a google search and POOF! Here you are! OMG!

John said...

Hmm, that's tough. Are they all in the same city? ;-)

Ok. I reckon

a)NYC
b)Portland
c)Venice
d)Chicago

Reasons? ill-thought-through. a) is New York because d) is Chicago. d) is Chicago because the architecture in the image is insecurely mock-classical, which suggests an attempt at culture in the Mid-west. b) is Portland because of the attempt at understated style in a IT city. c) is Venice because it says so in the picture.

I reckon 1 out of 4. ;-)

Lauren - 2 out of 4. Yer batting .500!

Nellie - Yeah, I keep trying to hide from Google, but they keep finding me. Nice to see you again.

John - 1 out of 4, but let's give you extra points because I like your logic.

The correct answers are:

a) Brooklyn
b) Pittsburgh
c) Venice

I'll leave the last one open in case anyone else wants a stab at it...

Absolutely no idea, but they are a good collection of textures.
