Fan Picture Detective Idea... (Patreon)
Content
On the back of the interest in that post I did the other week in which I located the picture of the Instagram model in Bali, I've decided to try something. Now this might sound slightly creepy, but what if you, my trusty Patreons, send me a picture of yourself via email, and I were to try and figure out exactly where you are, down to the specific metre. You could be on holiday, or in your hometown, or anywhere. I'll make a video showing the entire process of me finding out where you are, and if it's a success it could go on the YouTube channel. If it's not, maybe it could remain on Patreon.If you want to be involved, read carefully:- The photo would need to strike a good balance of findable, but hard to find. For instance, you standing in front of the Eiffel tower won't take me too long, but equally you standing in front of a wall, a bush, a field, or even a non descript street with no particular landmark or geographical features in sight will also be impossible for me to guess too. Remember I have to pinpoint your exact location - it needs to be doable! Mountains, rivers, sun position, railway tracks, hotels, shops, certain signs etc, will all help make it interesting and doable. *EDIT* I will be using Google images, Google Earth, and anything else in my power to find your exact location, so bare that in mind.- Try not to give me your name in your email, as it could give away the country. For example if your name was Anders Lundqvist, or Niall O'Conner, it might give me a hunch that you're from Sweden or Ireland, respectively. If your email has your name in it, you'd have to use another one that doesn't somehow.- Your face could potentially be on YouTube, unless you blur it out. Your hometown will be on there too obviously (if that's where you are). When I get confirmation from you on whether I'm correct, I could always get your name then and say it on YouTube if you gave me permission. That's up to you.My email is tomdavies2286@gmail.com. Please don't be offended if I don't reply to your email, as I won't have time to reply to each one. The only reply you would get is if you're chosen.Please make the subject of your email "DETECTIVE PHOTO" so that I can organise it into a folder easily.Depending on how long these take, I might do 3 for the first video, and then see where we go from there. If it's a success, I'll keep digging into the archives.So, best of luck finding a suitable photo as I'm sure I'll have lots to choose from!Also feel free to suggest a name for this idea, and to let me know if you think this is a good idea or a terrible one in the comments below. I have been known to not fully think things through..
