Florida seen from Space Shuttle

Florida peninsula. Computer-enhanced Shuttle image of the Florida peninsula showing marked reflections of the sun in the Atlantic and the lakes within the wetlands of central Florida. The sun-glint is crossed by the shadow of an east-west band of clouds and it also highlights regions of shears in the surface waters off the east coast (presumed to be related to the Gulf Stream). The view looks to the east and goes as far north as Georgia/South Carolina at the upper left. The Great Bahama Bank is visible as a light blue patch, indicating the shallower water, on the far right, just off the tip of the Florida peninsula

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the breathtaking beauty of Florida as seen from the Space Shuttle. The computer-enhanced image showcases the magnificent Florida peninsula, with its distinct reflections of sunlight glistening in the Atlantic Ocean and shimmering lakes within the central wetlands. As if painted by an artist's brush, a sun-glint illuminates the scene, intersected by a band of east-west clouds casting their shadow. The photograph also reveals intriguing features such as shears in the surface waters off Florida's east coast, believed to be connected to the powerful Gulf Stream. Looking towards the east, this mesmerizing view extends all the way up to Georgia and South Carolina on the upper left corner. Notably visible is a light blue patch known as The Great Bahama Bank, indicating shallower water just off Florida's tip. This image serves as a testament to Earth's natural wonders and showcases how space exploration can provide us with awe-inspiring perspectives on our planet. Captured by Science Photo Library, this remarkable piece combines artistry and earth science to offer viewers an extraordinary glimpse into one of America's most iconic coastal regions – Florida.
