I got sick of GOOGLE earth out of date and lo-resolution
images.... I discovered this site and found amazing images
and some are pretty new. You can even check out time lines
from previous images.
ENJOY !!!! www.nearmap.com
Show some potential for looking for reef breaks etc. because
most of the pics taken on clear days.
Apologies if you knew about this or its posted elsewhere.

Thanks for the tip. I will check it out. I hope it works for me . I can't get Google Earth to install on my computer.

Is your mystery picture St Kilda?

Love it, can pick out my boards laid out in the back yard when I was repairing, cleaning and waxing them. Also kind of scary. Much better than Google Earth.
