Yeah, I've been there and done that before. Without a photo showing landmarks etc there's no hope. Photos are now treated with contempt until proven otherwise these days due to photo-shop etc. I know a guy who was busted by CASA for flying under the Harbour Brideg in a fabric rag and tube ultralight... turns out the photo was photo-shopped.
Have you stopped to think that perhaps it is a legal op with a low level waiver?
