Natural-color image of BrasÌ_lia, Brazil.
August 21, 2001 - Natural-color image of Brasília, Brazil. August falls within Brasília’s dry season, with just 1 inch of rain, and the earth tones that dominate the landscape suggest that non-irrigated vegetation may be dormant. Buildings and roads appear off-white, gray, or pale tan. The city sits west of an artificial lake, Lago Paranoá. The branching lake sends its tendrils deep into the city, helping separate the downtown area (image center) from residential areas to the north- and southeast. Northwest of the city lies Brasília National Park, which preserves a large expanse of cerrado, the tropical savanna ecosystem natural for the area.
