Thanks a lot for the kind words!
I am also stunned by the amazing feedback and support I have already received here on steemit, and are eager to continue the journey :)

To answer some of your questions: It is true that these images are not 100% as you would have seen it with the naked eye from an airplane. All of these images are taken by the Sentinel 2 A/B satellites (these are 2 optical remote sensing satellites that are part of the Copernicus program). The Sentinel 2 satellites have 13 spectral channels incorporating four visible and near-infrared bands at 10 m resolution. So they detect far more light than the human eye can see. These images have been processed to include light in the near-infrared. This is done in order to observe and monitor the status of vegetation. (Healthy vegetation absorbs blue and red-light energy to fuel photosynthesis and create chlorophyll. A plant with more chlorophyll will reflect more near-infrared energy than an unhealthy plant). Therefore, when you photograph a forest or an area filled with vegetation with an infrared camera it will have a red colour as seen in the image below which is an image taken on the ground with similar equipment.

This is extremely useful, as it allows us to continuously process and compare new satellite images with old ones using cloud computing. Machine learning algorithms then get better and better at detecting and reporting the small differences that correspond to deforestation, forest fires, plant diseases, etc. All done autonomously of every square meter of the Earth.

Anyways, I guess some may be disappointed to hear that this is not exactly how these places would look to the human eye. However, to me, that just makes these images even more fascinating. Because it demonstrate how much richer in beauty the world actually is and give us a deeper insight than our innate senses are capable of providing on their own. Thus expanding our idea of what is possible and hopefully giving our creativity a whole new set of ideas to work with.

I see I should definitely make an own post explaining this in more detail, both for educational purposes and simply to clarify questions people may have about the images I share. So thank you for inspirng me to write a new post :) Again thanks for the very kind words! I look forward to continue making these posts!
