The city from above.




I've always loved maps and satellite imagery. Growing up,my father had this book called "Above San Francisco" a pictorial done from aircraft of all types,some images made it easy to distinguish local landmarks,photographed from one to several thousand feet. I found the images from our first Space Station, Skylab. launched in the 1970's to be the most intriguing. This painting is an impression of that memory.
