Hi Paul
You seem to spend so nice holidays (every men here can understand that;-) that you have posted your image Adobe RGB and 16 bits!

here is a 8 bits Srgb (untouched for colors, luminosity etc.):

So back to your teaser…
Seems to be winter time, so not in your hemisphere…
let's try some maritime countries…
Japan ?
Scotland?
China?
Russia?
Norway?
Denmark?
Finland?
Sweden?
Genova Leman lake? (Switzeland)

Wow, that's make a lot of nice places to visit with a such nice companion !

Hey Nicolas,

thanks for the correction. I am jet lagged so I can be excused for indiscretions such as these as well as random bank robberies etc.
the image was taken within the last few weeks so not winter but autumn. A snap snow fall.
Incredible..... all those countries listed but no cigar..... sorry.
Keep guessing...... more clues later if required.

As John already took Italy - what would be a sensible choice if you fly around the world - my guess would be Kroatia as I sometimes it looks even more italian then Italy itself..

Isn't the 2nd one in Riomaggiore?

In the Cinqueterre? = "5 villages" near La Spezia, Italy?

BTW; Good fish restaurant, at the left side of that river
Been there, done that, mate ;-)

Definatly a good place for holidays! Did you walked la Via dell' Amore?

So the first one could be il lago di Trasimeno?

No, it's not, cause it's il Vesuvio di Napoli, hidden by clouds.
Vesuv, the vulcan of Naples...

it wasn't to difficult, after you showed Riomaggiore, which is quite unique, so its guess was easy. As for the Vesuvio with its clouds, that was more difficult, but googling for vesuv-images helped a lot.
