Faces of New Orleans

Friday afternoon, we landed smack-dab in the middle of the French Quarter Festival!  What fun it was to capture so many of the faces.

    The faces of God!! Alleluia


  2. Oh yeah. You really got it. I know a couple of the people in the photographs, though not personally, particularly the fellow in the boa: you nailed him no lie. Hehehe… really, I hope he sees that shot.

    But you really caught the fun, the deep deep deep fun of New Orleans in the spring. And ya’know, you saw not one funnel’cake or watered down beer, no rednecks, no problems… just the music and the people and the city.

    We hung you onto today’s Ladda.
    Thanks youz,
