Where on Earth?

We love sending love notes with satellite imagery. ❤️ Lake Saint Clair is northeast of Detroit, Michigan and had beautiful ice cover in early January. The ice is even more striking in Blue, SWIR falsecolor imagery: ice appears as bright red, and water appears as very dark, almost black.
