    I think the first one is a volcano,
    the second one is a river,
    the third one is the murry river and the last one is percific ocean.

    I think the 2nd picture is of the great wall of china because 50% of the images of it is from a space picture. Even though you can see it, you can see the lining.

    Hi Mrs Joyce,
    I can see lots of mountains and lines all over there satilite picture. I can also see lots of clouds and desert all over there image. I can obviosly see the part of the satilite on the second picture! I think that there third picture is actully a sadilite image of lakes entrence beause that river is goingsraight out into the open sea! That is why I think that there third picture is lakes entrence. I think the first picture is niadra falls because I think that the waterfall is on a desert and bythe looks of it, it looks like it is in a desert because because of all of that red ground from there saderlite! Plus there huge setion of wtaer on there middle of there image looks very formilia on my opinion. I think that there second oicture is actukly near there noth pole or the south plole because I can see lots of ice and white on that image and that gives me a huge thought that there image I am talking about is the north pole or the south pole.

    When I first looked at these photos I thought the second one wa the Himalayas in Siberia. I also thought thr th last photo was the barrier reef but when mrs Joyce said that the river was Australia I changed what I thought now I have no idea what it is.

    Mrs Joyce this is a snapshot that I am just doing as I type. This is on the last photo.

    Here I am in the space station just floating around. I can see these weird all most glowing lines that I think are of the edge of New Zeland. My eyes are fixated to the glowing lines they are like something I have never seen in my life. It is almost like they are giant eels that are in the water. I wonder what they actually are. I really confused because they are that interesting. I am so exited though at the same time because I have never seen this before in my life. I wonder what else I will see while I am up in the space staion just floating around. 😄

    Hope that is okay Mrs Joyce .

    I infer the 4th photo is Australia, because the river looks like Lakes Entrence and Lake Entrence goes around Victoria but I might be wrong I’m not sure. I infer that the 3rd photo is Bolvia, because Siberia is in India, India is in Russia and on the end of Russia on the left isn’t curved and New Zealand doesn’t have a river on the side I think. I infer that the 2nd photo is New Zealand because on Earth it looks a bit like New Zealand. Finally the 1st photo might be Siberia I’ve already said Australia, New Zealand and Bolvia so that’s why but I’m not sure.

    I infer that the first photo looks like a volcano but I’m not sure where it is. The second photo looks like a lake which I think is in Bolivia and is called poopo lake. I infer that the third photo is in new Zealand and is of a river called Canterbury Otago. I infer that the fourth photo is of the murry river which is located in Australia and it runs through a few states.
