Satell(s)iteseeing


Landscapes from space
Today I saw something at Pruned, a new landscape blog that we like, that piqued my interest: satellite images of Land Art.

Pruned's post touts the merits of TerraServer, a site that I also prefer for aerial imagery and shows views of Robert Smithson's Spiral Jetty and Michael Heizer's Double Negative (beautifully manipulated images, by the way).

But, the post at Pruned inspired me to seek and share more sources for aerial landscape images.
