losdemas Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Sorry if this has been queried elsewhere. Recently, doing various reverse image searches from Alamy images into GIS I have been getting some very strange suggestions for text accompanying the images. A typical example: "samson captured by the philistines" What?! Now, I don't claim to be the best at keywording (tags), but I'm pretty certain that I never went this far off target! 😅 I'm getting many similar results. What is going on? Anyone else had the same experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I can't recall exactly what it was at the moment, but a couple of weeks ago I had a really strange suggestion for one of my images when doing a similar reverse image search. The other few I searched that day were as expected, only one weird one. Next time I get a doozy, I'll share it. So, you are not alone, however, while I don't recall the specifics, I'm quite certain it was not as memorably weird as yours! 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avpics Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Ones that I can remember that Google has suggested for objects were Eric Cantona and Paul Pogba (football/soccer players), but a memorable one was Joey Dunlop for an aircraft's undercarriage. There would have been a connection had I included Dunlop as a tyre/tire manufacturer but that detail wasn't legible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that sculpture? Google thinks it's something else. 😂 As for the soft focus one, it seems a popular theme on some agencies. Could they all be from the same contributor?
