Great idea! The trick is to zoom into peoples clothing, and then the associated event becomes quite obvious. Eg. Photo of Disco, no crazy lapels, obviously towards the end of disco, which puts you within a year or two.

Might have gotten lucky but zooming in on clothing got me to 1.8 years off on average (top 2%).

I just went by feel of each and got 2.4 year average, also top 2%. I guess it doesn't do higher than top 2% then.

What is the end of disco?

I presume OP meant towards the end of the disco era.

Which year: guess which year each photo was taken
