In this false-colour, 100 m resolution image captured in mid September 2016, the brown mountains and urban environment (along the northwest branch of Columbia River), the dark rivers, the green patchwork and green-to-orange spots of crop fields make for a colour palette that reminds us of the Autumn season.
In the centre of the image, where the river suddenly narrows just south of the pivot fields, it passes by a national landmark – the Wallula Gap.
