I noticed a little sparkle by the i under a\u00a0\u00a0photo of a flower arrangement that I took.\u00a0 After looking it up I discovered that if you click on the i it will bring up more information about the object of the photo.\u00a0\u200b This works for\u00a0\u200bpopular landmarks, statues, art, plants, pets, and more!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How it works:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
