The Graveyard

The Graveyard

 If you’re not into graveyard….just skip this one.   New Orleans’ is known for its elaborate graveyards and burial rituals.   I think they are cool and this one survived Hurricane Katrina which made it cooler   There is so much history in graveyard, you can’t help think who these people are and what type of life they lead.

Doors, Balconies & Details

Doors, Balconies & Details

Oh how I loved all the details of the streets.  Each street in New Orleans is FULL of character.  From rod iron fences to balconies decked in beads to doors that make you wonder where they lead I couldn’t help but fall in love with the beauty the city holds.  When you look around you can’t help but think….Did this make it through Katina?  There is a lot of beauty but a lot of the city is still recovering and some building that show the pain of what a natural disaster can do.  Even in a city where you know there was once a lot of pain it’s easy to forget about it with all the beautiful surroundings.

Get out your dollar bills

Get out your dollar bills

They even had pianos that played with no hands. Even at my fastest shutter speed I could not get a steady picture of this guy, he was moving so fast.  The sound was like nothing I have ever heard.

The Neon Lights of Bourbon

The Neon Lights of Bourbon

Bourbon street is like Disney world for college kids. You can’t help but be in awe in the allure of the neon lights, flying beads and people spending a dollar or asking for a dollar.  I love reading the clever names of bars, shops and fortune tellers and the gimmicks they use to get you inside.  The second you walk on the street you feel an energy that draws you in.  I’m not messing with this hot sauce…pardon the language FISH BOWL!! Bourbon is safe….God was there Looks like this dog partied a little too much. it was cool in there… A beer bong that is….  Can you guess which one is mine?
