Also learster that's some 5/5 photography, are you a professional photographer?

No, I just like to walk around and take pictures. Some day I will show them to my grandchildren when the city has changed and the one I live in is no more. Would have loved to see something like that from my grandparents, so maybe they'll like it.

That feel when all the European cities look nicer then the American ones. we aren't #1

I deleted the off topic. Any further off topic posts will be sanctioned.

I live in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. I despise living here and the day I leave I will cry tears of joy.


Downtown, the tall building in the middle is city hall and the one with the domed roof is a Ukrainian Orthodox Church. You can also see a Tim Horton's and the LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario [Liquor Store])




This is our bridge with many flags. It does not go over a body of water, it goes over a train yard. Note city hall in the background again.




Here you see rocks, a lake and pollution. These are the 3 most abundant things in Sudbury. Isn't the pollution pretty in the sunset though? We have more lakes than any other municipality in the world. We have the tallest smokestack in the western hemisphere and we call it the "Superstack"




water tower and houses




Sudbury is a city built around the nickel mining industry so they thought it would be cute to put up a monument called the "Big Nickel" (You get it? That's totally funny right?) It may look impressive to some but it is only 30ft (9m) across so it's not even that big...

This is all good information Counterpart... but this thread is about what your life is like there, not what the city looks and smells like!

It sucks.There is literally nothing to do in Sudbury. I'm pretty sure that's why so many people do drugs here.

I figured the pictures alone would get the point across that life really sucks here haha

They described it pretty well. YOBA just seems to have a hard time reading between the lines.

Counterpart elaborated on basically everything that is in our hometown of Sudbury, Ontario, Canada.
Here's one more picture, it is our oldest water tower. Isn't it beautiful?

Pretty cool indeed. It even got the name of the city on it!

You bet!

don't ever come here

Yup central jersey...nothing but a vast wasteland of endless houses and a sea of dirty forests, criss crossed by highways,filling the land with vains of angry drivers. Really its nothing but trees, houses, treesand highways. Plus, everyone here is a total ass.



if you look at bonjovis song, who says you cant go home, it shows how once you enter central jersey, you wil never leave... ever. fun fact is that my uncle went to school with him.

also just watch harold and kumar white castle. it shows central NJ perfectly as full of weed, college kids, cops, indians, asians, and angry white folk.

Pedobee is playing on it's dick while the kids are watching and Pedopan has already chosen his next victim, just take a look at his face and gestures. This is disturbing.

Ahahahahahahaha good one cow xD .. To be honest, Peter Pan and that "perver bee"(holding a pot) , are used to collect donations for the carnival .. If you look better you will see 2 girls which are promoting the event and giving some information

I's so hot in Samsun ;_;

It's actually just a thin strip of green between the city train tracks on the one side and the inter city high speed tracks on the other. So you always have these trains passing really close by, but you can't see them through the woods/bushes. It perfectly adds up to the atmosphere, when you walk those overgrown tracks. When they passed it gets dead silent again.
I love about my city that I still find new places and things to explore every other day!

Where is that place learster? i liked it

I'm betting learster lives Berlin.

Where is that place learster? i liked it

he already said in his first post that he is from berlin.

Found another great place the other day: a cemetery!

Crypts
Family Jordan
Gabriel the flower toe
Another angel
This one <- is very interesting. Notice the French name and her date of birth. She must have been a second generation Huguenot. They were French immigrants to Berlin/Prussia, who were prosecuted in France for their protestant Christian believes. So Frederik the Great called them into our lands and 40.000 of them came. That was about 1/3 of Berlins whole population back then! So Berlin was/is a very French city, because those were highly skilled people that had some serious influence on the city. They build the first hospital in Berlin, the Charité, which is now the biggest hospital in Europe. There's also many other places that have French names here (like Monbijou park) and many old Berliners have French last names. I love how all those graves tell their own story!
Like this one <- It reads "We will see each other again". Notice the delicate womans hand with a wedding ring grabbing the hand of a man- that's some pretty romantic stuff, isn't it? And those graves are all from the 1800s!
Or this one <- Can you see the bullet holes from World War 2? There's actually been fighting on the cemetery!
More crypts, huge and overgrown.
This little urn <- was quite interesting too. It reads "In universe nothing is lost, it's all just constant change."
Oh well, no need to say that I was extremly drawn into this. All those graves and crypts had so many stories to tell and whisdom to share. And the place itself is beautiful!
