  Title: Southern Louisiana, USA
  Description:
  Almost all of southern Louisiana (30.5N, 92.0E) can be seen in great detail 
  in this single view from space.  The rich river bottom land flanking both 
  sides of the  Mississippi River and the patchwork mosiac of agricultural 
  fields of the farms stand out.  The lush vegetation of the marshlands and  
  bayous can also be seen.  New Orleans, on the south shore of Lake 
  Pontchartrain and the vehicle causeway also stand out in good detail.
