It's interesting how some wooded landscapes, from the kind(s) of trees, their special distribution, and the nature of the undergrowth will quickly cue you to the region of the country where the image was taken. Those images immediately make me think; that's the southeast, well east of the Appalachians.on the coastal plane.

Absolutely, all probably within 15 miles of the coast. It's all in the EXIF too, all were shot with the O-GPS1 onboard.

New Zealand. I think this was taken from the tour bus on the move. Notice how the foreground grass is blurred, almost no texture in it.

More New Zealand mountains but a different foreground. Unfortunately, the lupines are an aggressive invasive species that were it possible, would be extirpated from NZ

Old lookout point on Poet's Walk, Clevedon, Somerset

This clifftop path was a favourite walk of Tennyson and his college friend Arthur Hallam. Hallam is buried in a churchyard a hundred yards behind this shot, having died at the age of 22 while engaged to Tennyson's sister. Tennyson's publishing of his epic poem "In Memoriam A.H.H." established the death as a Victorian tragedy of the highest order.

K-1 DFA 24-70mm

Clevedon Bay

The pier, built 1869, is thought to be the oldest pleasure pier in the UK still in existence. It is a Grade 1 listed building; no amusement arcades, just an elegant stroll out to a gazebo at the end. Beyond is the Bristol Channel and the coast of South Wales.

K-1 FA 100-300mm

Hiking the Slot

Another scene from Ireland. The little flat green headland looks smooth as a golf green, but it's pasture with several dairy cows on it, visible in the closer shot. The island just below and to the right of the "putting green" is only accessible by a suspension footbridge. There's a house on island (private residence?)
