betcha can, unfortunately. I've been trying to eliminate the ways in which you can cheat, but I probably won't be able to eliminate all of them. How would you cheat on a pic like this?

So, how did you cheat this one? Well, you are from Texas, I guess you coulda done this one legit.


Are there any photos that are cheat-proof that rely on good guesses or knowledge?
 
I just used deductive reasoning+wikipedia.


  • This one I assumed was a naval air station due to it's proximity to water.
  • I went to Wikipedia and looked on this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_US_Naval_Air_Stations
  • I figured you were probably being tricky so I went down the Former US Naval Air Stations list and started looking at the stations with aerial photos.
  • It was only number 17 on the list.


Cheating...perhaps :icon_lol:

that's not cheating at all, that sounds like a smart approach to research.

Stand by for harder photos.
 
Seems to me that it is more like skillful use of the tools at hand!
Good job :salute:
