Satellite view of Western Australia
September 22, 2010 - Satellite view of Western Australia. The white river-like feature in the northeast of the image marks a group of small, thin salt lakes that lie within the Rudall River watershed. The two western-most lakes, Dora and Blanche, lie inside the boundaries of Karlamilyi National Park while Lakes Winifred, George and Ault extend to the east. Lake Disappointment, an ephemeral salt lake, can be seen as a white circular area south of Lake Dora. In the southwest, the light green coloration indicates the vegetation of the Wheatbelt, which surrounds the city of Perth. The city itself can be seen as a gray semi-circle on the coastline of the Indian Ocean. To the east of the Wheatbelt, the green coloration becomes more dense and dark, marking the region known as the Great Western Woodlands

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a satellite view of Western Australia, taken on September 22,2010. The image reveals the diverse and stunning landscapes that make up this vast region. In the northeast, we are drawn to a striking white river-like feature which actually represents a cluster of small salt lakes nestled within the Rudall River watershed. Among them, Lakes Dora and Blanche find themselves protected within Karlamilyi National Park while Lakes Winifred, George, and Ault extend further eastward. A notable sight is Lake Disappointment—a temporary salt lake—visible as a circular white area just south of Lake Dora. Moving southwest from there, our attention is captured by the light green hues indicating the vegetation-rich Wheatbelt surrounding Perth—the city itself appearing as a gray semi-circle along the Indian Ocean coastline. As we venture eastward from the Wheatbelt region, we witness an intensification in density and darkness of green coloration—an indication of the Great Western Woodlands stretching across this part of Australia's physical geography. This awe-inspiring photograph offers us an opportunity to marvel at these natural wonders from space—a reminder of Earth's breathtaking beauty when viewed from above.
