New Orleans, April 2010

A few weeks ago I took some leave to go check out my next duty assignment.  On the way to Biloxi, we drove into New Orleans for a couple days.  Here's some of the shots I got. Clearly I need to go back. The old architecture, the interesting people. This place is a photographer's paradise.

Here are just a few shots of the buildings. The years of wear, the patina of age and the dignity of these things. Just amazing. We really don't appreciate what a lasting impact good workmanship can have.


And this is only the selected few I've had a chance to clean up and take out distractors like TV towers, cars and naked boobs.

OK. Just checking to see if you were really reading.

Not the naked boobs. I didn't photograph any of those. But I could have. Chose not to on this trip. Right? Trying to keep my first experience of the Big Easy clean and family oriented.

Sure.
