Tan and Green

AKA Through the Bus Windows



If you go to Google Earth and look at southern Chile and Argentina you will notice that Chile is dark green and Argentina a golden tan. I can verify that this is true having noticed exactly the same thing out of the bus window. 

Dark green lush Chile... I love the way the rain makes this photo from the bus window look like a painting.


Beautiful golden autumnal Argentina again through the bus window... I am told that the grass is always this colour even in the spring and summer.


(Further inspection of Google Earth shows that further north, where the prevailing winds blow in the opposite direction, Argentina is green and Chile is tan… I guess I will have to go there one day to check this out in person too!)
