high res (1.5 M) low res (94 K)
ISS013-E-27872 (28 May 2006) --- Considerable sunglint emphasizes features on Lake Erie in this image photographed by an Expedition 13 crewmember on the International Space Station. This detailed, south-looking image shows features on the surface of Lake Erie, about 30 miles west of Cleveland, Ohio. This view shows the Vermilion River in strong sunglint. The angular water bodies along the river are likely marinas. The main part of the image show numerous ship wakes in the zone of partial glint around the disk of the Sun's reflection point. The wakes radiate from the mouth of the Vermilion River, with many of them heading northwest in the direction of Detroit, Michigan.
