interesting images of strange environments and scenes. i particularly like the temple series (from which i also have two posters). the only setback is that the site uses flash and opens in popups, which makes viewing the large versions of the images a pain. e.g. http://www.acclaimposters.com/_gallery/large/10033052.jpg Title says it all. If you've got up-and-coming q1 deathmatch releases, post pics here:
http://nqr.esports-zone.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=81 looks like I imagined Soviet Union would be.
Or partly, Afghanistan: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v200/9505367/Subway%20Album/ShieldsRdExt1.jpg The Clockwork Orange!
personal anecdote: my dad, trained civil engineer, worked on the modernising of the glasgow underground. That victoriana building about halfway down the page, the entrance to St. Enoch station, had to be jacked up in one piece - by 7mm iirc - so the tunnels below could be worked on. My dad has dozens more photos of the project, but I shan't be asking him for more 'inspiration' :P What a surreal reminder o_O Off of bear's pics of Thailand, what the hell is this place...

(Btw, nice heads Lun) Contemporary thai artist making his own bhuddist temple after his own design. Apparently there's another artist that's answering with a black temple in the same city but haven't seen any of that.
The shipbreaking yards of Chittagong, Bangledesh. We've seen a few photos of them in this thread before, but I never knew the name of the place they came from. Apparently half of the tankers in the world are dismantled on this beach:

Notice the two tiny helicopters down at the bottom to get a sense of the scale. http://www.quaddicted.com/stuff/pics/my/uselesspicsforfunc/
The spiky thing is something in the Viktoriapark between Berlin-Kreuzberg and Berlin-Sch�neberg. I think it looks pretty cool, maybe you like it too. The red building is the Zitadelle Spandau, a citadel in Berlin-Spandau. Had a rather boring visit there but I thought I could make some photographs for you mappers. :) heh, that spiky thing looks a lot like one quake concept sketch i did a couple of years ago. :)
wasn't supposed to become a church/monument, though. A building in souther Germany called Goetheanum.
http://www.gnosis.art.pl/iluminatornia/ogrod_antropozoficzny/goetheanum_06.jpg Google for more pics of it and it's burned older brother (the rounder one). http://images.google.de/images?q=goetheanum Just random generated swirly patterns in all the colors of the rainbow.
Useless for mapping.
