Default Today's MODIS/Terra Image

A thread earlier this week, started by JPG, prompted me go to the MODIS
site to look at today's image - given the clear skies over most places.
I downloaded the 11.20Z Terra 500m resolution image and cropped/enhanced
again.
It came from this larger image:

http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/r...12500.500m.jpg

which is about 2.5MB

I've uploaded the cropped and enhanced version and it is just over 900KB in
size, so about 3-4 minutes on a 56k modem.

Yet again, the contrast in land colour between eastern counties and the
rest is clear to see. There is also some fascinating detail in the high
cloud over the English Channel and nearby areas.
