View from space of several of the Galapagos Islands between cloud cover and sunglint.


October 24, 2020 - View from space of several of the Galapagos Islands, visible between cloud cover and accented by sunglint on the ocean surface. The sunglint helps reveal features that are usually hard to spot, such as the lake occupying the summit caldera of La Cumbre, the shield volcano that makes up Fernandina Island. The youngest and most active volcanic island in the Galapagos archipelago, Fernandina. The reflected sunlight also reveals internal wave packets surrounding the Galapagos Islands.
