    Re: Latitude and longitude from a photo

    Hi Greg,

    Thank you for your reply. I don't think the photo is enhanced except that it looks like a time exposure in some way. Maybe a really fast camera. Where do you see the "Big Dipper" in there?

    I was doing some reading today, and I can see that there's no way to get longitude since there's no chronometer or equivalent time provided on the photo. But isn't there a way to find latitude from the positions of the stars???

    Bill
