Yup im aware of that. Its just that some of the areas alr mentioned there might not be covered. I thought of covering more specific places and what exactly is so ideal about the place for posing etc..

Thanks anyway

shouldn't expect someone to do all the job. there should be basic discipline in everyone in contribution and some kind of public-mindedness. this is why countries succeed while others fail, based on how public minded they are.
