Tightly Cropped Photos
October 11, 2009 - 6:38am
Good morning, trees! It seems we're going to have to collaborate on the photo puzzle today. So far, I have identified the bottom right photo as being from Webster. (Yay Webster!)
The bottom left photo looks familiar, but I can't remember if it's in Greece or East Rochester.
I'm totally clueless on all of the others.

Wow -- I got lucky and guessed the code.
Lower left picture IS Greece and bottom right is Webster. Not sure about the others, but you might not need them.

Using the maps on sponsoring search engine Bing.com I found that the upper middle photo is Honeoye Falls. Use the "birdseye" feature to zoom in on the towns and you'll find you can see a lot. Google's Street view might work to for some locations, however, this particular location has no data for Street View.
Thank you Pictometry!

You'll need the town, not the village to make the code work.

All I needed was the first photo (thank you, Trees) and a reminder of what the theme is. Bet the crossword is going to be impossible.

@mobileminded great suggestion to use bing!
The lighthouse and barn are both in westside towns.

Thanks everyone! That was helpful! To be honest, I didn't even recognize the photo from Webster...

Can't say I'm familiar with Hilton, but knowing the clue, I can tell you Hilton is at least not the right word for the upper right image.

OK, so I'm sure it's a picture of the braddock bay lighthouse.
Are the numbers an ordering sequence, or number of repetitions? We're totally stuck.
Can you offer a clue?

Once you know where all 6 pictures were taken, write them down in a list. The numbers refer to the number of letter in the location to use. If a place were "Pittsburgh" and the number is 2, then the letter to use is i, which is the 2nd letter. Write down each letter and you will get a new word.
Hope that helps! :)
fFacebook or email me if you need some slightly more specific help. (Actually I'm generally quite fFond of google chat, if you were inclined)
Bottom left looks like Ridgemont Plaza. The lighthouse is not Charlotte or Sodus.
