I would guess that the feature requires a low airplane flyover to photograph every inch of the planet, it's amazing how much they have already considering the work that's required to capture all the photos. When confronted with distributing a ridiculously long URL I go to http://www.tinyurl.com Just paste the long URL into the indicated box and click "Make TinyURL!" The reduced URL will appear below the box. It's very handy. I made one for your Cook Forest map: http://tinyurl.com/c5ndbk Beautiful photo that you posted on the ENTS Cook Forest page. -AJ At 10:09 PM 2/6/2009, you wrote: In keeping with the link provided by Andrew Joslin, here is a longer link to an aerial view of Cook Forest. Since it wont display properly on the discussion list, it is at the top of this page on the website. You can zoom in and out and pan the view with Live Search Maps. http://www.nativetreesociety.org/fieldtrips/penna_cook_forest/index_cook_forest.htm Ed Frank “To the attentive eye, each moment of the year has its own beauty, and in the same field, it beholds, every hour, a picture which was never seen before, and which shall never be seen again” Ralph Waldo Emerson --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Eastern Native Tree Society http://www.nativetreesociety.org You are subscribed to the Google Groups "ENTSTrees" group.
