Wish I could find a better picture.
We're at about the right leg of the 'A' in Albany.
If you go due south from the lights of Rochester, and due east from the "Buffalo" text, that little light blip is about 10 miles east of the NTG main office. Yup, we're right in that dark area there.

@scottalanmiller Must be Baton Rouge to the right of Houston.
Beaumont, I'd think. BR is likely just off screen.

Yup. We've been to the Miraflores museum. We've been to the Colon entrance to the canal. Drive THROUGH the Colon lock. Went to see the construction of the second canal. Watched the ships go through. Driven the length of the canal. Driven over it many times on both bridges (Bridge of the Americas and the central bridge that is newer.) Sat on the islands and on the causeway and watched the ships going in and out of the canal.

@NattNatt I do not envy your commute!
it's not too bad, I start and finish early to avoid the worst of the traffic, and I drive round the bright ring road that's round the edge of it, 25 miles and takes about an hour....could be a lot worse!!

That's a computer generated image - you wouldn't see that level of detail from space surely..?

@NattNatt Most pictures like that have to be, otherwise ~50% will be clouds.

It's often a mix, pieced together from lots of shots.
