98878609,MDU6SXNzdWU5ODg3ODYwOQ==,513,Problems with cartopy example,499079,closed,0,,,0,2015-08-04T03:06:14Z,2015-09-08T16:26:26Z,2015-08-04T17:15:51Z,NONE,,,,"There are two problems with the current [cartopy example]():
- The image array is plotted upside-down, with the data row that holds latitude 50° at the bottom, rather than the top, of the image. This isn't immediately obvious because of the random data.
- The image isn't shown in a true map projection, even Plate Carrée, since the aspect ratio isn't held constant.

Current image:

Same image with a true Plate Carrée projection:

(the default colormap has changed from jet as well, which is all to the good.)

Both of these issues can be fixed by passing the arguments `origin='upper', aspect='equal'` to the `plot()` method. I have a slightly different fix which uses a more interesting map projection to better show off using Cartopy to do the plot. A PR will be forthcoming.
