Maps from my first visit to London in 2000.
Drawn with felt pen on tracing paper, copic markers to underside of tracing paper then stuck on (crookedly!) to white paper and into a black paper photo album.
Hmmm... I like these maps very much - the use of colour and the 3D components are more successful that most of the maps that I do these days....but back then I had more time for these things ...no that was definitely not the case! I was more careful!! And just for the record I traced these maps.
BTW... I am doing more trip preps than I can or will post....

Map shows online communities and related points of interest. Geographic area represents estimated size of membership.
A Map, for a workshop last week. Mapping of oneself as a designer. I kind of decided to do the mapping with emphasis on the playing around with graphic layouting and the form of the map. A lot of glue-stick went in to this one as I did it all by hand on a A2-sheet of paper. It was a nice sunday-fun.
This is the waterfall at VanDusen Botanical Gardens in Vancouver, BC.
I wasn't satisfied with my earlier attempts to process this image with multiple exposures because of the motion blur on the ferns, so I went back to the RAW file and used Photomatix to convert the single file to HDR and then tone-mapped it to get this result.
Used in classrooms to help draw maps. I had loads of these during my schooling in the 80s.
I want to know if these were made in other countries? Finland? Japan? South Africa? Argentina?
Let me know!
A wartime map, which is covered in strange coded notes. See a detailed section of the map with some more information (and speculations!)
Map of irrigation areas and artesian basins in Australia from a thrifted atlas; kangaroo from a kid's magazine; aboriginal-style representation of a watering hole.
Sent to Martij for a PIF thread.
I am not sure if this is still on the station at Beverley, it either used to be by the booking office or on one of the Platforms, anyway its a NER map of some age seen on 22nd May 1975.
My first attempt at a clear graphic design map of Amtrak's services to all points north and east of New York City, current as of 2009. Not to scale, but I try to walk the line between clear abstract route map and adherence to geography following the "classic subway map" designs. I've included brief information about which potential major connections are possible, schedule-wise, and which aren't; and I've included two non-Amtrak services, the Lake Champlain ferry and the MBTA BOS-BON connection.
This 2013 map shows the locations of the ARM Facility sites (past and present) on the North Slope.

The Minahasa people inhabit the northeastern tip of Sulawesi. This map was at our guesthouse in Batuputih, the Tarsius Homestay. Tangkoko-Batuangas Dua Saudara wildlife reserve on the far northern tip of Sulawesi is a hotspot for wildlife lovers. We saw red-knobbed hornbills, black macaques, adorable tarsiers, and a lethal viper during our visit. Tragically, the reserve is under threat from logging.

Taken from here, this is a map showing the areas in East Africa where the Swahili language is spoken, whether as a first or a second language.
I am a daily mind map user. It is part of the GTD (Getting Things
Done) practice I learned from David Allens book. I was thrilled to see
that the iPhone now has a excellent mind map program that is
compatible with the java based Freemind program. This is iBlueSky
which I just started using today.
This global map of Saturn's moon Mimas was created using images taken during Cassini spacecraft flybys, with Voyager images filling in the gaps in Cassini's coverage. The moon's large, distinguishing crater, Herschel, is seen on the map at left. The map is an equidistant (simple cylindrical) projection and has a scale of 216 meters (710 feet) per pixel at the equator. The mean radius of Mimas used for projection of this map is 198.2 kilometers (123.2 miles). The resolution of the map is 16 pixels per degree.
So I had this idea: if you plotted all the major airports in the world, how much would the result resemble a map?
I found a database of airports with country, latitude & longitude etc (http://www.kingwoodcable.com/gpswaypoints/index.htm) and a list of three-letter IATA airport codes (http://www.photius.com/wfb2001/airport_codes_alpha.html).
A bit o' the old PostScript codin' later and I had this. Here I'm showing major and minor airports and colouring them too. Because I can.
