Google Earth Garden Shots, A Very Different Perspective

[Jim in Los Altos]

Not drone quality shots but fun nonetheless. The “rainforest” is apparent and the palms are almost swallowing up my house. Keeps things cool inside!   1/4 acre here in Los Altos, CA

Post yours Google Earth photos!

Arial shots are a great view of all the work we do in the garden.  I have a drone and have taken videos for a few local people here in Southern California.

Nice garden, Jim! Tip about those satellite photos on Google Earth. If you uncheck the "globe" option, it'll get rid of that weird distortion (see below):

 

Here's my garden from above:

Mine from Bing Birds Eye Pretty funny how most Palm growers gardens are pretty jungley

Les prises de vue Arial sont une excellente vue de tout le travail que nous faisons dans le jardin. J'ai un drone et j'ai pris des vidéos pour quelques personnes ici, dans le sud de la Californie.

Not my house. Palm nursery in Western Australia. Stands out a bit.
