Beauty of Earth
I found these pictures of various locations of earth from one of my "interesting" blogs. The images were taken by satellites and then false color was added. The one I feature definitely reminds me of Van Gogh's "Starry Night". The green patches are phosphorescent plankton. I love the swirls of the ocean compared with the green and brown of the land. It's a beautiful contrast. Seeing an entire island this small, I feel like a speck on the earth. And really I am. I am one of ~6 billion people on the earth. One of ~300 million in the United States. One of ~6 million in Indiana. One of ~300,000 in Allen county. I am small compared to those giant numbers, but I love these photos. They give me a tangible perspective. I am really enjoying the beauty depicted. And after the day I had today, I need something beautiful. So enjoy!
