Satellite Images on an Angle Change How You See the World

Robert Simmons, editor of Planet Stories, wants to change how you see the world. The problem—for lack of a better word—is the satellite images we’re used to seeing: they’re taken straight down. This radically alters how we view natural and man-made wonders here on Earth. To help you see things differently, Simmons has curated a collection of satellite images taken on an angle. Skyscrapers rise from an expanse of small buildings. Mountains cast shadows across vast valleys. Bora Bora, well… Bora Bora still looks like paradise. Check out some of the shots above and then check out Simmons’s Medium post for more.
