Subject: USGS Earth as Art images?
A few years ago USGS has a series of images ‘Earth as Art’ which became an exhibit at the Library of Congress. I dawdled too long in following up on re-creating the exhibit here
in my library. All the links I’m finding on the USGS website end in “Page not found”
Do these images still exist as a discrete collection (as high-res TIFFs) or did they melt back into the general inventory of images?
