Nasa’s “earth from space” photo of the year competition 2014

[Janet]

"Romped home", NASA said. Well, that's one way of putting it. NASA has now given the statistics: of the nearly 50,000 votes cast, our photo got around 48,000. It's 96%, and NASA are calling it "an avalanche". In honour of the remarkable result, and not for the first time either given last year's victory too, NASA has produced THIS  series of pictures of the Canaries from space. Something else, these islands! JA
