Bellingcat Challenge #19 “Pet the Cat”
Hello, cat.
In what town does the cat reside?
Solution
A Google reverse image search of the building in the upper-left corner of the challenge image returns a Shutterstock photograph titled Montenegro, beautiful city landscape, street of Kotor. Its description suggests that the photograph was taken in Kotor, Montenegro.
To increase confidence in the result, I identified the exact shooting location. Another Google reverse image search of the challenge image led to the photo gallery for Old Town St Tryphon Apartment, which contains the same building seen in the challenge image.
A Google reverse image search of the distinctive landmark in the photograph identifies it as the Cathedral of Saint Tryphon. The building to the cathedral’s left, distinguished by a red sign and a streetlamp, also appears in the challenge image.
I located the shooting position in Google Street View, confirming that the town is Kotor.
