I don't *Think* there is a thread for this. I don't remember one ever going through. There is one for real life thief 'references', and now one for the glowing mushrooms. But actual locations?

I've been looking at a LOT of photography lately. High quality photos from around the world. I have been struck before by a building here that makes me think of something from Thief, or a funky little alley there. But today I ran into this photo - which is nothing but something out of Thief actually photographed.

The title is "Poble Espanyol", which is oh so helpful. (Or not, though I can guess its somewhere in Spain?)

But, seriously. . .doesn't it look almost exactly like a scene from some thiefy mission somewhere?

I know there are other places in Europe that have this atmosphere. But this is the first picture I've see that so totally is something from Thief. With the exception of that little trash thing on the wall.

Anyone know of any others? I'd love to see more.

Ahh, thanks, clearing. I looked for that thread and couldn't find it. I probably looked right at it and didn't see it. lol But I didn't remember it was actual 'scenery' too. I was remembering objects and such.

The picture you posted looks good too. I'd so love to go see these places. Then again, maybe not. Then I might see the modern side and that would ruin it. lol
