So long as it something recognisable, such as a part of a building, or castle or monument, rather than just anonymous scenery.  Give it a try. You'll find  that a few amateur sleuths around the world will try to figure it out
Make your title something like" Where is this?" or Where am I?"  to pique their interest

Ok, thanks. i will prepare one picture to give it a try. And will post it later on today. Just need to come back home and get me own PC

One or two of the Forum regulars will try to be the first to resolve it.
A bit of friendly rivalry

Should i pick a time frame to do my post for the challenge?

It's always been at random times in the past.  So whenever is best for you

hard this one

Daniel Boavida Posted at 3-20 04:10
hard this one

There's a much easier clue lower down - just scroll through the replies

Blériot53 Posted at 3-20 03:16
I never used it - even back then.

Ticks and crosses for use in Excel used to be the most popular ones IIRC.

I bet there are loads of people wandering around with tattoos from those fonts.

Funny, Google only finds your image

The one further down the page is easier to identify

Yeah, I noticed that one. Just found it very funny because google lens pointed me to your post

Montfrooij Posted at 3-26 00:17

It was right, though

Blériot53 Posted at 3-26 00:36

True. It was .

I have no idea. Earlier on, I attempted to guess, but I suppose I need to go the Google Lens way like the others if I want to have a chance at any of these.

Blériot53 Posted at 3-19 10:30
The trick is to crop enough of the image off, so that Google lens can't identify it
I took pity on you with that one

Thanks for the tip, will have to try that out if I do another one later on

Blériot53 Posted at 3-20 00:48
Hannu in Finland posted one a couple of days earlier, but he made it rather too easy.

Yeah, I have to admit that. Didn't take into account that people would use assistance from the web. Will have to try harder next time. It was my first one of this type, so lesson learnt, I guess

DAFlys Posted at 3-20 01:04
I got that one right but I was late to the party with it,  the place is right next door to the villas where he works.

Well, not right next door, but admittedly not that far either Just a couple of minute's drive from Point A to Point B

Blériot53 Posted at 3-20 01:18
He didn't have to go far for that shot, did he

Depends on how you count it. Not far from where I work, but from my home, it is about 50 kilometers away. Of course, that is not the farthest distance in the world either

DAFlys Posted at 3-20 01:36
No,  not far at all.

It depends on how you look at it. See my earlier post for further elaboration

The trick is, to crop the image until Google Lens doesn't recognise it - that's what sets the challenge and means you have to look for other clues
Then wait for hints from the OP.

HGDC84 Posted at 3-27 15:31

Don't be discouraged - have another go

The trickiest ones to work out are top-down shots using the drone.

Too far to walk

lol.  it seemed closer on google maps.

So that takes away about all my chances

Blériot53 Posted at 3-27 22:56

I'll have a think about it Just need to find a good one

Blériot53 Posted at 3-27 22:58

I see, they must be far more rare than the ones taken from the street level

Blériot53 Posted at 3-27 22:58

Yeah, not even going to try that!

DAFlys Posted at 3-28 05:29

It sometimes does

Most-but not all.

You'll have us all scratching our heads

Yes, they're a favourite of DAFlys. His are the hardest to figure out

Blériot53 Posted at 4-1 09:43

Always the optimist, eh? Though that is not a bad thing most if the time

(Apologies for not being on the forums much lately, I've had a rough time moving out of my old apartment and trying to settle into the new one. But i will pop by here occasionally when I have the chance.)

Blériot53 Posted at 4-1 09:43

Not hard to imagine why.

Hi Hannu.  Hope you get settled into your new place soon

Blériot53 Posted at 4-18 12:42
Hi Hannu.  Hope you get settled into your new place soon

I guess the worst is over, in the sense that I succesfully have returned the keys of the old apartment to the landlady and she gave me my rent deposit back. Just need to make some sense into the chaos of items currently taking place in my new apartment
