The same block of downtown in 2010 and 2023. What can the photograph actually prove?
Two flat pieces of paper, and a city stands up off the table.
The easy mistake is to zoom in. Close up you get shape and tone, but most answers come from zooming back out and asking what the whole place is for.
A perfect circle with a bridge across it. Tracks radiating out like the hands of a clock. Locomotives parked beside it, a long curved building wrapped around one side.
Take an aerial photograph of your own town and name what you see. Most people stall within a minute.
