Thanks for making these images available - I am preparing for a journey to the Masai Mara and The Serengeti - your 'art' has assisted me in visualizing the terrain.

Saludos, Douglas

These pictures were amazing and very helpful! I am in eighth grade and I am studying diverging continental plates. We are doing a report on the geographical results of the plates, which is a rift valley. This provided an interesting view of the rift valley and a very awesome visual! Thanks a ton, Miranda <3
