The photograph below, which documents a storm surge created when Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast of the U.S. in late August 2005, is genuine (although the accompanying descriptions of the location it was taken from are sometimes inaccurate, and what it depicts might be more accurately described as water overflowing a levee rather than a true storm surge): Example: [Collected on the Internet, 2005] The image is one of a series captured by Don McClosky, manager of Entergy's Michoud power plant in New Orleans. Mr. McClosky rode out the storm at the power plant, from which he snapped pictures like the one displayed above. As WWL-TV noted of the event: A gallery of Mr. McClosky's photographs is available for viewing on the WWL-TV web site. Austin, Texas, resident Mike Collins has also put together some analysis and post-Katrina photographs of the area in which these pictures were taken.
