Io - The Jungle Moon

[ffutures]

This is going to be very small on the page, about 1" square. Hope it gives the right impression of a virulently hot tropical jungle.

I would have expected a more green colour if it is to be jungle. It's too yellow IMHO, particularly on the left where there's even shades of red.

The red's reflected light from Jupiter. My problem is that it's a little too textured; some of those shadow features must be tens of km across. At this scale, is the surface meant to be that uneven? I'd expect a flatter texture to the jungle, with broader features corresponding to different climatic conditions and geological features, I think. What does the Amazon jungle look like at this kind of scale?

Good point. Easy enough to fix, I think.
