It doesn't work all the time, in fact many times not at all. But sometimes in this situation, if you have a modern state of the art magnifying glass, and look over the photo very carefully, sometimes tucked in a corner or in the far background, you can spot clues. I have had success several times. I bought a photo that an expert couldn't name the city or the park. After about 5 minutes, and much eye strain, I found out the city and park. It's been years so I can't recall the whats and the wheres, but give it a try. You never know. I keep one on my desk at all times. Even on old photos it's amazing what you can spot if you try. And when you magnify, it is like time travel. Looking into the past. Kind of cool.
