EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning beauty of Kyushu, Japan, as seen from a satellite's perspective. The natural color image highlights the third largest island in Japan, situated in the southwestern region of the country. With its borders masked out, Kyushu stands out against a backdrop of blue hues representing the Korea Strait to the upper left, South China Sea to the lower left, and Pacific Ocean to the lower right. The intricate details captured by LANDSAT 5 and 7 satellites in 2000 offer an extraordinary birds-eye view of this Asian nation's topography and coastal features. From above, one can appreciate Kyushu's unique geographical characteristics that make it stand apart from other regions within Japan. As we gaze upon this remarkable satellite image, it becomes evident why cartography enthusiasts find such fascination in studying Earth observation from space. The coastline and shoreline of Kyushu are beautifully depicted here, reminding us of our planet's diverse environmental frontiers. While this particular print focuses on Kyushu alone, Science Photo Library offers images highlighting all other regions across Japan for those seeking further exploration or research purposes.
