Hi Ruben:

"These pictures were taken with a hand held digital camera so, no worries."

Just FYI, depending on the camera, that is not a safe assumption. I have a point-and-shoot Olympus TG Tough digital camera that I use primarily for scuba diving and snorkeling and it has a GPS receiver and geotags photos unless the feature is disabled. In any case, I think I could use your photo to get much closer than you might think, but then I'm probably an exception that you wouldn't be concerned about. ;-). --Rob
