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.
