” Where in the world was this picture taken?” Click on it to get the GPS coordinates and here for more details.

Well, wonder no more. Our Featured Site today is picaspot.com (“Pick A Spot”) where photographers worldwide can share their favorite spots for taking pictures and mark them with GPS coordinates and other pertinent information. Then readers get to vote on their favorite pictures.

It’s a great idea, especially when we see a great photo and have no idea where it was taken and from what position. Of course, this may unfortunately generate lots of great looking photos that look similar — and hopefully this will spur the search for new and original perspectives. Photographers visiting a new location might find the site invaluable.

Whether this site will be a success or not remains to be seen since any already popular photography sites such as Flickr can quickly incorporate this coordinates and search features (already there for the most part). Also, the number and quality of the pictures will determine its usefulness to photographers. It’s just starting out and the database is still sparse, so your best bet right now is to search by category.
