#PhotoOfTheDay: A Siberian Snowman in Billings

Icons of winter are sometimes found in unexpected places. In one striking example, a series of oval lagoons in a remote part of Siberia forms the shape of a towering snowman when viewed from above.

This image, centered on the remote village of Billings and nearby Cape Billings on Russia's Chukchi Peninsula, was captured by the OLI (Operational Land Imager) aboard Landsat.
