This video explores the diverse landscapes and waterscapes across the coast of Queensland, Australia. The image was acquired on May 7, 2021, with the Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8. Norman Kuring of NASA's Ocean Biology group applied color-filtering techniques to draw out the fine details in the water, but the features are real.
