QuoteYour photos reveal a lot of private information.

In this experiment, we use Google Vision API to extract the story behind a single photo.

You can upload a photo (or try one of the sample photos) and the page will describe what it can (from details in the pic, possibly also EXIF information, etc.). It might be interesting to try some road pics on it.

I submitted the first photo from a Cornwall, Connecticut page (https://cornwallchronicle.org/a-numbers-game/). It could read the routes 4 and 125 signs, but identified the scene as the Adirondack Mountains.
My first SF/horror short story collection is available: "Young Man, Open Your Winter Eye"

I tried it on my eclipse background photo. It didn't know it was an eclipse, even though it had the location and date/time from the metadata.

QuoteThe slight chromatic aberration visible near the edges of the bright wall lights might indicate a less-than-perfect lens or post-processing choices.

All the other information was correct, though it did not know the location (it was in Peotone, Illinois...not a city area as suggested). I'm surprised it didn't look up the name and address and took a crack at the place name.

It didn't seem to enjoy my new lens very much, though it's a very fast, wide-angle lens with known distortion features.



QuoteThe photograph captures a twilight scene on a roadway, possibly in a suburban area. In the foreground, several vehicles are visible, including a dark-colored SUV and other cars, all appearing to be moving along the road. The background features a row of illuminated commercial buildings, suggesting a car dealership or similar business, with the Cadillac logo prominently displayed on one structure. Streetlights illuminate the street and surrounding area, casting a soft glow against the darkening sky. There are power lines running above the street, and bare trees are visible on the right side of the frame. The overall atmosphere is calm and quiet, suggesting a typical evening on a quiet road.

The image shows vehicles moving in both directions, but there is no one clearly visible in any of them; thus, no details about the people are readily apparent. The picture was taken with a Canon EOS R camera on Monday, December 2nd, 2024, at 5:54 PM CST. The lighting suggests the sun has recently set, creating a warm tone in the background sky, contrasting with the cooler tones of the streetlights and building exteriors. The picture is taken during what seems to be the off-peak hours of a weekday evening. The calmness of the situation and the type of vehicles suggest that those driving may belong to a middle-class demographic.

Several details are subtle. The slight color shift across the sky suggests there might be some atmospheric variation. The clarity of the street signs, including the US Route 6 sign and the additional number 409, is excellent. Additionally, the lack of pedestrians or significant activity suggests the road depicted might not have a high traffic volume during these times. The overall clarity of the photograph also suggests a relatively high-quality camera lens and settings, and the subtle chromatic aberration is visible if one looks closely enough.

Ironic, since the lens and flash were from 1978, though taken with a recent camera. GPS is not enabled on this camera unless synced with my phone, so it can't tell it was in Orland Park, Illinois.
