A place to share pictures taken from above, that reveal interesting views, fascinating places or different angles to places.
I have made a short video describing how I take the pictures that I share, here
This is not a rule! You are welcome to share any aerial picture you feel is worth sharing. I just thought that maybe some of you may need a little help. It's really addictive once you get started!

Wow that's cool.
I live in Western Australia, although 2 or 3 thousand km from this area.
This seems to be a "very low frequency" facility. meaning you need very long antennae. The building in the centre runs antennae to the 6 points of the visible hexagon I guess.
West Aus government maintains a public database of aerial survey imagery with way better resolution than google maps. The image below is the building in the centre. The long white thing is the central mast. You can see the antennae (antennas?) connected to the top.
Actually on further inspection the antennas seem to be way more complicated. This image shows more detail of the white thing at the bottom of the frame.
That's awesome!
