A slight break from posts about the council tarmacking over our green field sites for some pretty pictures.
This area has more than its fair share of budding David Baileys, as anyone visiting the photo sharing site Flickr will be aware. The Walthamstow group has over a 1,000 pictures to browse through, or alternatively you can search the whole site, for example find the “most interesting walthamstow pics“.
Some even add GPS information on where the photo was taken, allowing computer boffins to come up with ingenious sites like this one which displays a satellite image of the area with little thumbnails of all the photos taken.
Visit here for the Blackhorse Road satellite image.
You can zoom in to see more pictures, order it by newest taken, most popular or just check out whether anyone has randomly taken a picture of you putting the bins out in your nightie.
It also offers a large satellite view of the lovely green space where the council plan to put a large school so by all means send the developers some feedback on this and the housing development via their online questionnaire.
