EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a true-colour satellite image of London and its surrounds. With the North at the top, the Thames Estuary gracefully flows on the right side of the frame. As the capital city of the United Kingdom, London has held its position as Europe's largest and most populous city since the 17th century. Renowned for its financial prowess and cultural significance, this metropolis is depicted in all its glory. The heart of London sits prominently towards the center-left, with the iconic River Thames meandering through it before reaching out to embrace the estuary. The vastness captured in this image spans approximately 170 kilometers across, encompassing extensive fields that add a touch of rural beauty to an otherwise urban landscape. Obtained on September 13th, 2002 by NASA's Landsat 7 satellite using Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus technology (bands 3,2,1), this photograph offers a glimpse into London's intricate tapestry from space. It provides valuable insight into land use patterns and covers Greater London along with surrounding areas such as Middlesex, Surrey, Essex, Kent - showcasing both built-up urban regions and picturesque countryside. This remarkable visual representation serves as a testament to human geography in England during our modern era. Its breathtaking details reveal how cities have evolved over time while harmonizing with their natural surroundings. A truly awe-inspiring piece capturing one of Europe's most vibrant cities from above.
