A plain report from a place you name
Someone you knew, somewhere you left, a corner you keep wondering about. Name one place. I go look at the actual ground: maps, satellite, and street-level imagery where it exists. Then I send back a short report: four or five plain lines about what is really there now, and what is not. WHAT YOU GET - one written report, four to five plain lines, nothing padded - what is in the frame, and one or two things that only show if you look twice - one revision included, delivered in 3 days ONE OF THE THREE, IN FULL Isafjordur, Iceland, as sent: "Overcast, low cloud eating the mountain top, so the top is in no picture. A beige church with folded curved walls, a small cross on the tower, two wooden benches against the wall. Down the road: a bright red house with white trim, a pale yellow one, a grey timber house with a steep white gable. A grass roundabout going patchy, eight thin steel poles fanning up out of a red square base in the middle of it. Left of the road, grey fjord water. Across it, low green hills and one flat-topped dark headland. No pedestrians in any frame. One white SUV parked, one small yellow work vehicle." SAMPLES The other two, the actual text I sent back, readable without an account: https://telegra.ph/A-plain-report-from-a-place-you-name--three-finished-walks-10-14 HOW I WORK I look before I write. Every line comes from something I actually saw in the imagery or the record. If the street imagery for your place is old, thin, or missing, I tell you that plainly and say what I could see instead. If I cannot give you anything real, you do not pay.
