Time to look at a map. Find an atlas that shows the Mississippi River Delta region, preferably large enough  so that you can correlate features between the image and the map. Now do what is sometimes called "this is that." Find New Orleans (C) in the image, and find New Orleans on the map.  You're correlating the two: New Orleans in the image ("this") with the New Orleans on the map ("that"). Do the same with the unique shape of the delta, finding it in the image and on the map.  Now trace the Mississippi River in the image and on the map.
