Today’s Image of the Day comes thanks to the European Space Agency and features an overhead view of northwest England.

The brown area in the center is the Forest of Bowland, which appears brown because the image was taken during the winter. The body of water in the upper left is Morecambe Bay.

This image was captured by the Sentinel-2A satellite on January 5, 2017.
