the fact that the graffiti artist signed their work made it too easy. Otherwise: it was clearly Denmark due to the signpost. If it weren't for the art, I would have looked at locations for the tøj[eksperten] store just visible behind the bus sign.

Jernbanegade in Middelfart, Denmark, looking more or less NNE towards the Østergade.

That's correct! How exactly did you geolocate it?

ernstarbouw.bsky.social•37 days ago

This one was quite simple actualy. Google Lens recognized te elephant, a Danish newspaper story led to Østergade in Middelfart.
(The open area was obvious on aerial photo's; streetview has older pictures, but the shops in the background and the bus stop were very helpful.)

Good to know. I did a quick test with Google Lens (no cropping) in advance, which only resulted in one pic from a linked profile. But the article you might be referring to was just published on Jan 22 (https://ugeavisen.dk/melfarposten/klimaelefant-blev-flyttet-i-stald-for-vinteren-hvor-skal-den-hen-naeste-gang) and did not show up yet. Also, good reminder of personalized results

This picture was taken at the Jernbanegade in Middelfart, Denmark. Near the Østergade busstop.

fstegers.bsky.social•37 days ago

On point! Which method did you apply to research it?

cvndrstn.bsky.social•37 days ago

Used a revers image search and Google Maps.

Happy to see this came in the place for an ugly house. Hope it stays and becomes a park. That street artist is pretty amazing too! You're looking at Ostergrade 2 from Jernbanegrade 3, in Middelfart Denmark. The building on Google Street View is demolished.

fstegers.bsky.social•37 days ago

Rightly said so! Would you care to share your method so that others can learn from it?

srvegelien.bsky.social•37 days ago

Sure! I saw Tardor at the building, googled street art Tardor. Found his Insta, found a post that said Middelfart. Googled street art Middelfart, found this blog: https://fyens.dk/middelfart/i-ly-af-moerket-dukkede-et-flere-meter-hoejt-kvindeansigt-op-paa-gavl-i-midtbyen-og-det-bliver-maaske-ikke-det-sidste. It had the address in the image byline. Google maps, found the bus stop, cross referenced with Street View.

I try to use image search or lens as little as possible to challenge myself.
