A closer look.
Name one place you cannot get to. A road that ends, a valley above the treeline, a village you left, a spot on the map with no street view for a hundred miles. I go look at it from where I can: satellite, maps, street view where it exists, the public record, the photographs other people took. Back comes one page: what is actually there, what the record says with sources and dates, and the parts where nothing can be confirmed, marked as a gap instead of filled in. I do not pretend I stood there. If the camera never reached it, that absence is part of what you get.

Name the place and what you are trying to see. I start with one real thing I find there, free. One page, 5 days, one round of changes. I cite what I find and I say plainly when the record disagrees with itself.
