> there's no direct way to click to January 2015 from the results, which really sucks. (Instead you have to go back out of results and use their fiddly scroll to get there.)

It's amusing how people's insights can turn myopic. Search in photos is the killer feature, and it even solves the problem that you have.

If you realize that you need to see photos from January 2015, don't try to scroll back in your photos feed. Just do a second search for "January 2015".

That's worse than click-to-this-photo-in-context though. Maybe I have 4000 photos from January 2015, so it doesn't help to search for the month.

To an extent it does. For example “Seattle night in July” shows me night pictures taken in Seattle the one July I was there a few years ago.
