The green hues of summer give way to the reds and browns of autumn in
this pair of MISR nadir-camera views acquired on August 26, 2000 (left)
and October 20, 2000 (right). The images include eastern Vermont, New
Hampshire, and western Maine, as well as the southeastern corner of
Quebec province. New Hampshire's White Mountains run roughly
north-south through the center of each image.
Linear patterns associated with forest clearcuts are apparent in the
upper left quadrant of the images. Some scattered cumulus clouds are
present, and urban centers show up as patches of gray. The city of
Portland, Maine, is at the lower right corner, to the southeast of
Sebago Lake. Sherbooke, Quebec, is visible to the northeast of Lake
Memphremagog, which straddles the US-Canadian border.
