For enjoyment and relaxation, I play Geo Guessr online, and in the course of figuring out where I am in the world, I will often run across some serendipitous scene that I want to capture.
So I do.
This blog showcases those fun things. Each entry will have a photo / screen grab of the thing, along with its location in the world – both textual, and as a Google Map link (which is the entire photo, in each case).
Enjoy along with me!
