It actually looks like a snap shot from a video-game, To be honest.

They also said it can't be San Francisco bay or San Pablo bay because of the lack of tall buildings and lack of bridges.

What you are looking for is a city with a wide river or bay without tall buildings and without many bridges.

I wonder if its around Seattle or Vancouver. The terrain and having areas of the city wothout tall buildings could fit what is seen in the picture.

Hm. Nice work man. Thanks for bringin that to the table. =)

The car and pavement and rocks look too real for video game shot.. but the background I can believe you on.

Chris B. · 11-04-2010, 08:26 AM

Did you find the location of this photo yet?

igo4bmx · 11-04-2010, 09:34 AM

it could be a view of LA
i was at some party a couple years back outside the city and the home had a view like that

JST2KWIK · 11-04-2010, 02:29 PM

Can any photo gurus enhance the stickers on the side window? If either of this stickers are from a specific shop you might be able to at least get an idea of where to look

JST2KWIK · 11-04-2010, 02:36 PM

Also try posting on their forum:

I may have been wrong about that. Since its a night photo, I assumed the entire dark area was the width of the river. Albuquerque doesn't have buildings close to the river. Probably to allow room for when it floods. I thought Albuquerque had too many bridges over the river for the photo to be there. Maybe some of them don't have lights.

Look at the pattern of the flowing highways, and the stadium style lighting, it's nowhere in Albuquerque. I'd almost be willing to bet the photo is doctored, but the quality of it is kind of poor.

GSXbabe8 · 11-05-2010, 10:06 PM

Still didn't find anything out yet. Maybe its in texas? TX is pretty flat

Yeah the evo its self and the pavement look decent. but if you really sit there and stare at the background for a while it doesn't seem real. if you really look at it.. on the one rock a twig is going out into the background and something seems kind of funny about it....

DocWalt · 11-05-2010, 10:44 PM

I can't find anywhere with that view, and a cliff like that, all up and down the west coast using Google Earth, and it's nowhere in New Mexico or Arizona. I'm going to vote doctored pic. Also, notice the angle of the background to the foreground, it doesn't seem right.

natethegreatt · 11-06-2010, 08:44 AM

somewhere in colorado maybe?

Yeah. Well I mean even if it is doctored its still a beautiful picture. I appericate all your effort man! If you wanna continue to search please, feel free. =) I can't find anything lol.

DocWalt · 11-06-2010, 10:47 PM

Pretty sure this is the location. There's the zig-zagging highway, and the bright lights off to the right behind the Evo. This is in the hills south of South San Francisco.

BlkWhtTSI · 11-07-2010, 03:48 PM

this could be it ^^ it only needs to be a bit of a higher up view

DocWalt · 11-07-2010, 04:37 PM

Yeah, google earth is pretty bad with elevations, but if that's not it, I give up, haha.

Vr-4-Life · 11-07-2010, 05:20 PM

lol i bet that took some effort....

I wonder how many babies were made at this place... I wish we had a "point" like that around here... What a vista...

GSXbabe8 · 11-07-2010, 06:23 PM
