A place to share pictures taken from above, that reveal interesting views, fascinating places or different angles to places.

I have made a short video describing how I take the pictures that I share, here

This is not a rule! You are welcome to share any aerial picture you feel is worth sharing. I just thought that maybe some of you may need a little help. It's really addictive once you get started!

This is one of the maps reviews:

Visited the site this morning. Very unfinished and no construction work in progress. Lagoon is full of water though. Evaporation must cost a fortune. Water is not cheap in a desert.
Many millions of dollars spent and no sign of it becoming operational. Can anyone explain the riddle of City Stars Sharm El-sheikh?

So, I don't think it should count until it is operational.

It also doesn't really look like a pool on Google maps - it's got sandy beaches, rather than walls with stepped/ramped entrances.

Even when that one opens, I'd argue that OP posted the largest pool, and this is more of an artificial pond.
