Inauguration Day Crowds from Above
Posted by Diane Zoellmer on January 25th, 2009
NASA’s Image of the Day site has been in my bookmark lists for as long as I remember. There are incredible shots that are available for use in the classroom and I make a point to share this resource when I teach “Using Digital Images”.
Last week when I was teaching a group of teachers about social bookmarking and shared my delicious account with them, one of them found the NASA link. The image of the day was this amazing shot taken from above Washington DC on Inauguration Day.
Most of us saw the sea of people on TV – or in person if you were lucky enough to be there – but few of us probably had the opportunity to truly understand the magnitude that this photo offers.
I had to downsize it considerably to fit into this post. Find this image and more at the NASA site.
