[edit] New photos, comments welcome

I've added NASA Blue Marble satellite composite images to the following articles (the top islands which didn't already have an overall satellite photo):

  1. Bathurst Island
  2. Somerset Island and Fort Ross
  3. Vancouver Island
  4. Prince of Wales Island, Nunavut
  5. Southampton Island
  6. Melville Island, Canada
  7. Axel Heiberg Island
  8. Devon Island
  9. Banks Island
  10. Ellesmere Island
  11. Victoria Island (Canada)

I'd like to add ones to the remaining islands listed here, but the Blue Pearl data isn't very detailed, and so for the smaller islands one either gets a uselessly grainly image or one has to show progressively more of the neighbourhood and less of the island itself. I might be able to find Landsat imagery (which is much more detailed) but its server is broken today. Comments and suggestions as to these images are most welcome. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 16:31, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
