Can I pinpoint the EXACT location of my fans using a single image?
A few weeks ago I successfully and swiftly identified the exact Bali swimming pool that a random Instagram model was snapped, following a request from an alleged victim of a catfish. I did this using a mixture of Geoguessr knowledge, Google Earth and Google's search engine. Following some dialogue with my impressed patreons, an idea was spawned. Why don't I make a series out of it where I try to successfully identify where my patreons/fans are using the small amounts of information that can be seen in the background? Here's the result.
Pinpointing the exact location of my fans using a single image.. GEO DETECTIVE #2
Having successfully found last weeks subjects, we move straight on to our fourth target, holiday maker Andrew Feathercock. With nothing but a mosque and a few boats in the background, this promises to be a tough one, but will I do it?

Pinpointing the exact location of my fans using a single image.. GEO DETECTIVE #5
I'm back after a busy period of editing and poster signing and it's straight in with the latest edition of geo detective. This week I tackle a tricky image sent in from Bjorn Bunter, who poses in front of some relatively non-descript buildings, proudly donning a Sweden football shirt. Is the shirt a red herring? Will I even be able to find out? All will be revealed in this episode..

Pinpointing the exact location of my fans using a single image.. GEO DETECTIVE #6
Welcome back to Geo Detective, the unique series which sees me scour Google Earth, the internet and beyond in an effort to try and locate my fans from one solitary image. This week I attempt two tricky images sent in by Bobby Tegnut and Bradley Buckingham Green that I suspect originate from north America. Each image will pose their own unique set of challenges, but growing in confidence with each episode I am confident I can get the job done.

Can I pinpoint the exact location of the person in this image? [GEO DETECTIVE #9]
Things go up a notch this week with this tasty submission from Draco Dinkleberg. There really isn't a fat lot in this image apart from a church and some other historic buildings. Are they findable on Google? or would I be forced to give up the ghost for the first time since Aran Amberleaf in episode #3..
*Side note: Uploads have been less regular this week because I filmed a mini mission. Uploads may also be semi regular in the coming weeks as I prepare for another not so mini mission. I'll try my best to treat you with vids when I can.
Could the reflection in these shades help me pinpoint the exact location of this photo?
Geo detective is back with a long overdue mountain photo sent in by Ian Clutterbuck. Will the shape of the mountain along with the ones in the distance be enough for me to locate it on google earth? or will the reflection in Ian's shades offer an important clue?

Can I successfully locate this random guy on a beach?
This certainly felt like my most ambitious Geo Detective challenge yet when I first loaded up the photo. I mean it's just a guy on a beach. All we really have to play with is a few rocks, some pine trees and some turquoise water. Have a bitten off more than I can chew with this one? or will it prove to be easier than expected?
For those new to the channel, geo detective is a series in which I (GeoWizard) attempt to pinpoint the exact location of a photo, be it a fan or something different, using my skills on google earth, google maps and my questionable googling skills. The aim is to get within 25 metres of our target. So far I've only failed once, but there's time yet...

Can I find the exact location in this sentimental old painting? Is it even a real place?
Geo Detective is back, and this 12th episode offers something a bit different..
Instead of attempting to locate the whereabouts of my viewers/fans, how about I try to successfully locate a scene from a painting? But not just any old painting..
This is the first of what I suspect will be many special and unique challenges where I search for a place in a painting or photograph that holds a specific meaning to someone. In this case, Raphael's great aunt, who has had this piece of art hanging on her wall for decades. Despite her great nephew's protests, she is adamant that it does not depict a scene in Paris. I have been summoned by Raphael to prove one of them wrong, but who will it be? Could it be neither of them?
My most emotional (and insane) Geo Detective to date
Your favorite online geography series continues with something quite special.
When Maurice asked me to locate this photo of his deceased father so that he could travel to that spot and recreate the photo, I jumped at the opportunity. He knew the country (Taiwan) but so much has changed since the 70s, and with just a tiny mountain to go off, this was going to be a challenge to remember..

A map with all 198 world capitals, half of which I've never seen, explored or even know the name of.

You know you want to play along with this one.

Can I locate this cherished family photo using WW2 aerial imagery?
The hottest geography detective series on the web resumes with the oldest and perhaps the most meaningful photo we've had the pleasure of working on so far. Daniel's grandmother was believed to have been holidaying in Southern England or Northern Europe in the early 50s when this snap was taken, but despite Daniel's painstaking best efforts, him and his family are still none the wiser. My job is to find out exactly where this photo was taken, however, it's not going to be plain sailing. With nothing but a few strands of seaweed, a couple of white buildings in the distance and a strange, probably long demolished wooden structure in the foreground, have I bitten off a bit more than I can chew?

Sub 30 seconds? Surely not..
My quest for speed in familiar places has lead me here. Attempting to achieve the fastest time I possibly can in my hometown of Aldridge (127 locations) ..I start the video with the view to beat last weeks time of 50 seconds, but things soon escalate and I kick into determination mode. The question is, just how fast did I manage to go?

This photo lay undeveloped in a charity shop camera for 70 YEARS
This week's geo detective takes our recent historic family photo tangent to a whole new dimension. Three undeveloped photos found in an old 50's brownie box camera, never seen the light of day for 70 years, and suddenly exposed to the modern world. I intend to locate the idyllic seaside scene captured within them hopefully solving part of the mystery, but can we go one step further and find out who this young girl is or was, using the mighty powers of the internet? I genuinely have no idea.
