Aerial pictures of the Atchafalaya Delta I took

I was on a flight from New Orleans to Houston recently and managed to take some pretty cool pictures with my iphone. At the time I had no clue what I was taking pictures of but after 10 minutes of searching on google earth, it was easy to figure out that it was the Atchafalaya Delta.

Nice pics. I always try and get a window seat just so that I can track exactly where I'm going.
I can successfully kill a day at work just looking at google earth.

Isn't that one of the few places that is actually creating land and marsh?

Yep it is building pretty fast.

Beautiful.
When I fly out after a fishing trip with my buddies, it almost brings a tear to my eye. Always hate leaving.

I used to fly over that area regularly when I worked offshore. I probably would've taken pictures if I had an iPhone back then.

Les Miles has lost control of the delta.

I took some of the Mississippi River delta a few years ago and they came out almost as good. Cool stuff!

Seeing that makes me want to get the hell out of cocodrie. Fishing is just not as good lately.

That's the Wax Lake outlet . It's fed by the Calumet Cut. I flew some LA State workers over it about 20 years ago to take some photos for an aerial survey. They had pics from just a couple years earlier and it was clearly larger marsh. Must be a shite ton of silt flowing through there.
