Visualizing Locations Remotely

 During the creation of my first suspense/thriller fiction novel, “The Motivator”, I found it challenging at times to work through a few scenes visually due to geographic limitations. I solved for the limitation partially by using Google Earth® images, panning birds-eye and street level views, developing snapshots to drive creative thinking. While the images are static and may not reflect the time of year you might be looking for, use your imagination to dress your vantage point with clouds, rain, snow, or whatever climatic element you are searching for. This is truly one of the many positive uses for the internet - this author appreciates the opportunity.
