I was unaware of the damage hurricane Katrina had wrought until yesterday. I was not paying attention to the news. But once I was aware, I went right to Flickr to look up pics, since the news sites had nothing “good.”

There, I found a link to this amazing satellite image. Of all the satellite images I’ve seen, this one, I think, best demonstrates the power and size of this monster. It’s also eerily beautiful. Beautiful disaster.
