Фотографы часто используют прием, когда снимки делаются из необычного ракурса. Но большинство таких видов можно посмотреть, если стать в точку, откуда сделана фотография.
Однако не всё так просто с фотографиями, сделанными из космоса, с орбитальных станций, МКС и тому подобного. Наверное, поэтому снимки Земли из космоса пользуются такой популярностью.
В этой большой подборке фотографий (около 100 снимков Земли) представлены виды Земли со знакомыми местами, известными сооружениями и местностями, но такими, как их видят космонавты и астронавты.
Интересные квадратики полей, удивительные завитки дорог, мозаика судов в портах и многое другое — всё это можно увидеть на фотографиях нашей планеты из космоса.
