Thanks for taking the time to view my image. Your comments, faves & constructive criticism are greatly appreciated.
I could sit and look at satellite pictures of the Earth and Google Map all day. I really could. I love seeing the shapes and formations of river estuaries, mountains, volcanic flows, glaciers, cities, roads and islands.
The above picture is of Hilbre Island, taken vertically from above the earth. Beautiful, amazing, intricate. This is a small piece of Hilbre Island right by my feet. Doesn't it look like a satellite shot?
There's a crater to the upper right, and a sulphurous flow down to the left towards a distant lake glistening in the sunshine.

Looks like a flow chart, it reveals stuff Google has associated with your website.
Good for me! Google correctly knows me as a social media consultant!
Unfortunately, I can't even make out my own house. But it is in approximately the center of this photo. I've lived there in Mill Valley on Reed Street for almost 15 years so even if this was photographed 6 years ago, my house is still in there. My point is that I live in an area that is covered with trees and vegitation. This was a shock to my system when I moved from North Beach in SF shortly after the earthquake.

photo taken on google maps in New Orleans. The idea behind it is that in quarantine we can't go anywhere so we go to these places using google maps.

All true stories. I can't believe so many memories exist in one screen full of the map. I wish Google Maps had this kind of annotation.
Here's the live Google Maps URL I used to grab this image of Placentia, California.

This photo is of the building originally occupied by Hoffman’s Resaurant & Bar. See the next image, a postcard from the 1930s.
My thanks go out to a flickr member, Chris Nickey, for leading me to this contemporary photograph.

Independent fishmonger offering fish, shellfish & in-house smoked salmon in a compact shop at 16A Broughton Street, Edinburgh.
Broughton's main thoroughfare is Broughton Street. The street has many independent speciality shops. Broughton is today at the centre of Edinburgh's "pink triangle", an area of the city with a number of gay bars and clubs.
Edinburgh's first traffic lights were installed in Broughton Street in 1928. The Scottish folk band Silly Wizard were based for some time in a flat located at 69 Broughton Street. Phil Cunningham, member of Silly Wizard and younger brother of the band's founder, Johnny Cunningham, lived in Broughton.
Edinburgh's biggest health food store, Real Foods, has traded on Broughton Street for over forty years. Opening in 1976 within a former drapers shop, the shop sells natural and organic food, with its goods being completely vegetarian or vegan.
The Broughton Spurtle: Broughton's Free Independent Stirrer is a community newspaper for Broughton and adjacent areas in north-east and central Edinburgh. It has been running since February 1994 and has no political, religious or commercial affiliation. It reports hyperlocally relevant political, planning, environment, transport, licensing, cultural, historic and plain odd stories, and tries to be equally rude to all sides without fear or favour especially during elections. Generally speaking, it does not see eye to eye with the Edinburgh Evening News.
Let there be love everywhere..
There is no better place that I could've captured this other than at "Auroville"..
"Auroville wants to be a universal town where men and women of all countries are able to live in peace and progressive harmony above all creeds, all politics and all nationalities. The purpose of Auroville is to realise human unity."
This was the view from the northern path around Heidsee, the large lake there.
We took a bus from Tiefencastel (Station) to a bus stop North of Lenzerheide, near the Revier Mountain Lodge, which you can see on Googlemaps. We did a C-shaped walk around the lake, and then a woodland walk back to the centre of Lenzerheide.

Dunham Massey Hall
The present hall was built in 1616 by Sir George Booth, who received one of the first baronetcies to be created by James I in 1611; it was remodelled by John Norris for his descendant, George, 2nd Earl of Warrington between 1732 and 1740; it was further altered by John Hope towards the end of the 18th century and again by Joseph Compton Hall between 1905 and 1908. The hall, stables, and the carriage house of Dunham Massey are all Grade I listed buildings, three of six such buildings in Trafford. The deer park is the only surviving medieval park in Trafford or the surrounding area.
Inglewood, California - I lived here through 5th grade. You'll find 25 little stories on this map, including the one-time home of Bruce Lee and events from the childhood of a little monster. When I lived here there were no zip codes: It was Inglewood 4, California. Area Code 213. Our phone number was PL4-xxxx (the PL stood for PLeasant).
