Fly to Tenerife with Google Earth
Recently, someone called 'Rednick' at the Google Earth Community posted a really interesting collection of placemarks and showing many views in Google Earth of photographs taken by a famous French photographer Arthus-Bertrand. The placemarks are the locations of about 130 photographs from a collection called, appropriately enough, "Earth From Above"
The interesting thing about it is that in this post about it on the Google Earth Blog, the example photos they use are here in Tenerife and, indeed, somewhere no more than a couple of miles from me. It is the view of the Montaña de Taco with a reservoir in the top, next to Buenavista del Norte.
The level of detail of this area in Google Earth is particularly high, as you will see if you "fly" here. Once you get to the Montaña de Taco in Google Earth, following their instructions, just make a left up between the mountains you'll see on your left and you'll soon find your way in to the El Palmar valley.
