Boatyard at Sunset, Yscloskey, Louisiana, 2001
A mauve sunset blankets a boatyard in Yscloskey, Louisiana, in 2001. This and nearly all the other fishing hamlets in the marshlands of St. Bernard Parish southeast of New Orleans were flattened in the summer of 2005 by Hurricane Katrina’s 20-foot (6-meter) storm surge. Years later, the region’s fisheries and oil and gas industries are still rebuilding.(Photo shot on assignment by Medford Taylor for National Geographic magazine, July 2001.)
