I just started using this image as my windows wall paper...



But I'm starting to feel a bit daft because I can't identify those two coastlines below.

I had a couple of quick looks around the net but I can't seem to find any detailed info on this pic, all I got is the ref on the bottom (S114E7220)

Can any one ID those coastlines, or know where I can look up the image - I tried the Nasa ISS page and the search didn't help.

It's a small thing but it's bugging me

I think it could quite possibly be the coast of kuwait to the west.

And to the north west the southern coast of Iraq.

And to the north and north east the coast of Iran.

Take care.

Regards
Lee

Hey thanks for that - I thought I'd tried that, oh well

Still can't exactly line it up with google Earth yet, best I can figure is that the top of the pic is more or less south. Least I can tell anyone looking over my shoulder what they are looking at now! cheers

Now I got it!!!

Top of the pic is East (left=north, right=south)

That's the Volga river coming in from lower left.

Sometimes I feel a little slow, but with help I usually get somewhere

Edit: If anyone is interested it around the 45deg N / 48deg E mark

Nice choice

Cheers for that, I wanted something other than motorcycles! Stick with this one for a while.

Cheers man - peace, and cheap beer
