Nice nightime photo of the Iberian peninsular
« on: 04 August 2014, 14:29:44 »

Thought I would share this with folk on the forum.

You can see Morroco across from the straits of Gibraltar bottom right. The balearics(Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza) to the right. Pyrennees then France in top of photo.

What a lot of electricity being used especially on the Costas., Madrid, Lisbon and Seville.

In fact, for those bothered, if zoomed out of crApple maps on a dark side of the planet, you can see the night images, and an almost totally dark North Korea for example.

It is indeed :y the really bright patch is the Sussex coast, Worthing to Brighton, with Horsham/Crawley/Gatwick and London all fuelling the really bright patch :y
