Image Caption:
STS49-151-103: Batabano Bay, Cuba Pale blue to greenish colors
indicate the shallow, calcium-carbonate floored water of Batabano
Bay, southwestern Cuba. Sunglint on the straight between the
Isle of Pines and the mainland reflects in orange and pink
colors. This frame is one of several that can be used for an un-
controlled mosaic; the set is perhaps the clearest photography of
the region obtained during the Shuttle Program. Linhof camera,
250mm lens, color film.
