Anyone know how to make a google maps satellite shot good enough for a photograph? 8 x 10 would be great.
My sister, BIL and I are in the latest shot of our cottage. Kayaking. It would be great fun to have the photo. Intellectual property notwithstanding.

Have a discussion with the US Govt. The reason you can't get a hi res image is because the data feeds are deliberately fuzzed out a little bit for security reasons.

The last shot of our house had my mom riding the arena - I always thought that would have been cool to frame
