  1. That's Beautiful
    Why do you think the foliage is greener in the center?
    Is it the distance from Saltspray?
    I don't think there an appreciable elevation difference.

  2. I would guess it's different vegetation (palm trees vs scrub shrubs), but that's just a guess. If you go to Google images and scroll through a bunch of the Maldives hits, you can see some elevation changes, and some vegetation changes.

  3. Perhaps it could also be a cloud shadow?
