Google offers a very useful image investigation tool called lens. Using Google Photos you can find out information about the images you have collected with your phone.<\/p>\n

Here is a quick description of how this tool might be used.<\/p>\n

We just returned from a trip to Rome where I took this picture. I had no idea what I was looking at when I took the picture or afterward.
