Is the Tahiti island with Mt. Orohena (2241 m) and Mt. Ronui (1332 m)?

Interesting. My first guess would have been Tahiti as well, and it sure does look like it. I bet that's why Nick picked it... <_<

Nope. Oooo... a stumper. OK, here's a hint: it's not in the Pacific Ocean.

Here it is again since the first post is far down now:

Nick, that was a brusier.

It is Isla de Ometepe in the Lago de Nicaragua. Very nice selection.

I'll post after my lunch.

That would've taken me a long time to find. I was wrapped-up in a neat website I just found.

http://www.oceandots.com

It has a good gallery of the world's oceanic islands as imaged by NASA and MODIS.

hmmm, it says i have only 30k of "global space" left and won't post me an attachment.

Nick, does that mean I need to purge older attachments, or do we need to find another sponser who can pay for more space?

game over.....


just kidding.... ;)

Nice work Rob. This is the largest lacustrine island in the world. For more info: http://www.ediciones...aseo/lagoi.html

I have closed this thread and started a new one. I think it adds up all your attachments in a single topic.
