Oblique aerial photographs of Chandeleur Islands

Detailed Description

Oblique aerial photographs of Chandeleur Islands. The yellow arrow in each image points to the same feature. The view is looking west across the island from over the Gulf of Mexico. Sand evidently was driven landward as the Gulf shore significantly eroded. The remaining island was shaved narrower and vegetation was covered with sandy overwash deposits.
