Theres something to be said for being on the ground when news plays out, but sometimes its the overhead view that provides the most unique perspective. Throughout 2014, DigitalGlobes satellites have captured scenes that gave us important glimpses into what was happening around us, from the unrest in Ukraine to fires in California.

A leading provider of commercial satellite imagery, DigitalGlobe is holding its fourth annual Top Image contest and asking followers on Facebook to pick the years top picture.

They say you've found somebody new,But that won't stop my loving you. I just can't let you walk away,Forget the love I had for you.

Guess I could find somebody new,But I don't wan't no one but you.How can you leave without regret?Am I that easy to forget?

Before you leave be sure you findYou want his love much more than mine.'Cause I'll just say we've never met,If I'm that easy to forget.

------------------------ Before you leave be sure you findYou want his love much more than mine.'Cause I'll just say we've never met,If I'm that easy to forget.

If I'm that easy to forget.
