That has to be Erg Chebbi, Morocco; though technically this is the whole dune field.   ;)

Don't be silly, that's got loads of letters too many.  ;)

You said the country had the same number of letters as China!  But I don't remember Aber looking like that, anyway - more spangles and better songs!

Next to Burrow Mump in fact, taken a year ago. Which is interesting if you compare this, taken this month.

I've never been there! David has, quite a lot, as the West of London Astronomical Society observes and holds Stargazing Live! events there.
You gave the game away by posting something about a lido earlier today!

that looks like the spoil tips that are around some of the lead mines in Swaledale, but its probably Turkmenistan knowing your holiday snaps.

Close enough - it's Great Pinseat summit (that's Yorkshire, not Turkmenistan).

I was going to narrow it down to Gunnerside gill but I couldn't place the hill .
Is that the bit where there are still rusting tubs and winches on top of the hill?
I have walked it a couple of times and just looking at the map reminds me of how many bridleways there are.

I found this photo on a thread elsewhere. 

It's my home town (yes..it looks gorgeous doesn't it?) and I absolutely love the photo, I'm going to have a print made I think..

Guess the place.

Guess the person.
