Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Taken along the south-western edge of the snow cover, this picture shows an apparent gradient of snow thickness. Snow cover appears most opaque in the upper right corner of the image, and gradually thins toward the south and west. A combination of snow, bare ground, and the Sun’s low angle accentuates differences in land use. Grids of major roadways and side streets indicate Snyder’s city limits. Immediately south-east of town, a cluster of circles and semicircles suggests centre-pivot irrigation systems. Surrounding the town, rectangular and circular shapes indicate crop-land. East of town, a highway runs north-west-south-east through the area. |
