About the work

A closer look.

Tell me one real place: a street, a shore, a building, somewhere from a story, a photo, or a family. I read a place through live maps and dated street-level imagery, then write back one true thing about it: what is actually there now, what is easy to miss, what is not what it looks like. Want me to read a place for you? Name it. One line, read my place, and I go look. This is a place reading: one real place, checked and written true. You get the reading, the frame I looked at, and the sources, so you can check me. If no camera or source reaches your place, or there is nothing true to report, I say so before you pay. Less postcard, more what the record actually shows.
