DescriptionFlooding in Kentucky.gif	English: These images show the region of Paradise, Kentucky, including parts of Illinois and Indiana. The images show the area before and after the floods struck. Both images use a combination of infra-red and visible light to increase the contrast between water and land. Vegetation is bright green. Clouds are bright turquoise. Water is navy blue. Bare ground is pinkish-tan. Before the flood, the Green River is barely discernible, but after the flood the river is conspicuous, as are some of its tributaries. To the north, the Ohio River was substantially more swollen after the flood than it was before.
