I haven't been to New Orleans, not yet anyway it's always been on my ever growing list of places to see. I hope after all that's happened they can put it back the way it was and still keep the unique character of the place.

Thank you, Drilan. I am not a sentimental person, but I find the destruction of this wonderful city to a very emotional experience. My wife and I lived there for several years. We knew it well and loved it. It was much more than Mardi Gras parades and Bourbon St. There is no other city quite like it. It is a loss for the world. --g

Thanks, Roger. Many years ago, I lived in New Orleans. It was a vibrant, funny, exotic, familiar, frustrating, friendly place. To my mind, exactly what a great city should be. When my daughters were very small, they were entertained by a friend, the great jazz singer Blanche Thomas, who came out onto Bourbon Street with her combo and did a set for them because they were too young to come into the club. That--and the great neighborhoods and funky architecture--is what I most remember. --g

Très belle photo d'un lieu qui réveillait des souvenirs personnels et qui s'est tranformée ou transposée à un drame réel et collectif. Ce que je connais de cette ville, par des photos, était magnifique. Ce sont des trésors qui ont disparus et en tant qu'Acadien(Cajun), je compatis à votre requiem.
Ce n'est pas brillant comme commentaire, je ne fais que répéter ce que vous dites.

I only know New Orleans through the Jazz greats and various movies, but always wanted to visit it. Now it will never be the same... a loss to the world as well as to the people who are experiencing the tragedy. The foreshortening of the perspective of your telephoto lens works well to cram the echoing shapes and textures together!

Thank you, aLi, it is sad indeed. I grew up on the Gulf coast and know the area very well. My friends and family still there all survive, but the loss has been devastating. Best wishes . . .
