 Along parade routes these type of trees are frequently spotted right after Mardi Gras. This is a unique one indeed!

You need to see this at least once in a lifetime. Then get out of there and go somewhere
else, like on Frenchmen Street where a lot of the locals hangs out.

This image of St Louis Cathedral makes me VERY happy since I waited for quite a long time yesterday to capture this photo. I have seen many shots of St Lous Cathedral, but the light, weather and angle in this photo, makes it very unique,  moody and romantic. It was very well worth it to deal with rain and super high humidity yay! It is available as a 10″x 10″ or 20″x 20″ fine art print or as a 20″x20″ giclees (canvas gallery wrap).

If you have read the famous book a “A Confederacy of Dunces” you should already know about these Lucky Dogs carts that are all over the French Quarter selling “gourmet hot dogs”. I tried to eat one once, but since I wasn’t drunk ( I don’t ever drink) it tasted pretty nasty to me. Maybe I forgot the relish , who knows, maybe it is true that people just eat them to soak up some the handgranades  they have had :) . Anyway, getting back to business, this image is available as a fine art print here.

Never let a good rainy day go 2 waste…(part2)

A title for this Bourbon Street shot came easy: The Hangover (!)

I finally had the time to post on this blog some of my newest images taken in 2011 in New Orleans (mostly in the French Quarter) and they are all available  on my gallery site www.nolaPIC.com . Sadly winter is almost over and the moody and gloomy ligh,t the rain and the deserted streets that I love are becoming a lot more alive and colorful. Please Bob Breck let me have another major cold front (or two!) I have another post  lined up with new pictures after this with some really killer streetcars shots taken on Cana Street and after that I’m afraid it will be time for Mardi Gras pictures…I’ll do my best to capture the celebrations I promise!All fine art prints are also available framed and with non glare glass with or without a mat.

I have been waiting for these type of moody and gloomy light for quite a while and if you live here, you are well aware that it does not happen that often. I walked in the French Quarter for a long time, I was sore and soaked but as you will see from the photos it was well worth it. Let’s pray for some snow on the South Shore now.

Matassa's Market in the French quarter of New Orleans

Thanks to a very low humidy record during the past  weekend (unheard of  for Louisiana in August!), I shot a few (IMHO) great images with the Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM, at the Hale Boggs Mississippi River Bridge in Luling , LA and in the French Quarter in New Orleans, LA. The small slideshow doesn’t do any justice, since the images should be really viewed at larger size to fully appreciate the feel them and the dreamy bokeh. Open edition prints are for sale and available from 8″x12″ to very large prints sized @ 20″x30″ and can be ordered and shipped in USA and Europe.

Please be sure to always check out my gallery of available images nolaPIC.com since new photos are added on a weekly basis .
