Long Island from Space. The LIShore masthead logo is
derived from this beautiful photograph of Long Island taken from the space
shuttle. We don't have complete information on the image, but it was shot in
March after a snowfall (note the ice in Great South Bay and the upper Hudson)
and appeared in the book "Orbit" published in 1996 by the National
Geographic Society. This image is cropped from the original picture supplied by
NASA through the courtesy of the Long Island newspaper
Newsday.
