This Envisat image is centred over the plateau region of Najd located in Saudia Arabia, bounded on the west by the Al Hijaz mountains and on all other sides by desert sands. A curious feature about this image are the irrigated fields shown as grey and black circular patterns at the top and centre left of the image. Image taken on July 13 2003.
