These last couple of days I've been going back over the last 10years of photographs as I prepare to get rid of a computer. (No need for two desktops now I've retired) I can honestly say that I could return to the exact spot where I took every photograph on this computer, so why do I need to have a pinpoint map reference?
I suppose I might understand if a photo was taken on some Himalayan trek...but even then why does it matter?
I have returned to places to retake photos in the past, to try different lighting or sun angles but the desire to repeat a shot is very rare. On such occasions, the very intention is burnt into my memory sufficiently to know where I need to go.
I just think it's another gizmo that we kid ourselves we need.
