View from space of Lake Ontario
August 23, 2013 - View from space highlighting a late-summer whiting event visible across much of Lake Ontario. Such events are caused by changes in water temperature, which allows fine particles of calcium carbonate to form in the water column. The city of Kingston, Ontario, is visible near the Saint Lawrence River outflow from the lake. Several other landscape features of New York State are visible in the image, including the Finger Lakes region to the west of Syracuse. To the northeast of Syracuse, the dark wooded slopes of the Adirondack Mountains are visible at image upper left

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures a mesmerizing view from space, showcasing the stunning beauty of Lake Ontario on August 23,2013. The image highlights a remarkable late-summer whiting event that stretches across much of the lake's surface. This phenomenon occurs due to changes in water temperature, allowing fine particles of calcium carbonate to form in the water column. As we gaze at this awe-inspiring picture, our eyes are drawn to the city of Kingston, Ontario, nestled near the outflow of the majestic Saint Lawrence River. The vastness and grandeur of Lake Ontario is further emphasized by several other notable landscape features visible in this photograph. To the west of Syracuse lies the picturesque Finger Lakes region, while towards its northeast lie the dark wooded slopes of Adirondack Mountains. The vibrant turquoise hues that dominate this image create a striking contrast against Earth's landmasses and offer us a unique perspective on our planet's natural wonders. From high above, we witness how climate and geography shape our environment as if observing an intricate tapestry woven by nature itself. This aerial view serves as a testament to humanity's ability to explore and appreciate Earth's physical geography through advanced technology like satellite imagery. It reminds us not only of our planet's immense beauty but also underscores the importance of preserving and understanding these delicate ecosystems for future generations to cherish.
