these were all shot with the canon g10 – a camera i sometimes don’t give the respect that it deserves.  anyway this is the last day i was in new orleans.

g10-5259

started off the day by giving away this crawfish costume on craigslist.  it was surprisingly popular – in the end this guy was the first to come and pick it up, he wanted to wear it while playing his drums in an upcoming music video they were going to shoot.

new orleans: day 3 – bywater, pt. 1

the third day of the trip was another epic day – started off by biking from the lower garden to the bywater neighborhood in the morning and ended back downtown after lots of bike riding, bbq and hanging out at a secret beach.

new orleans: day 2, part 2 – dixie brewery

after a late lunch (think turtle soup and a 25 cent martini from commanders palace) and kicking around the apartment for a bit we headed off towards an old downtown brewery that had looted and then abandoned after katrina.  our other roommate had been there a few days before and gave the advice to just keep heading up to the roof as you’ll get a great view of the city from an unusually tall perspective.  done and done.

and with that we were out of light for the day and so it made perfect sense to head over to the fanciest bar in town and order up the signature cocktail of new orleans, the sazerac .

new orleans: day 2, part 1 – market street power

the rental house was located in the lower garden district and while biking around early the next morning i noticed a couple of large stack looming over the neighborhood.  i had heard that the power station they belonged to had been abandoned for some time so a trip over to check out the situation seemed to be in order.

new orleans: day 1

for my birthday, i was lucky enough to take a trip down to new orleans where some friends had rented a house for the month – most of them had come down for the mardi gras parties which were all over by the end of february.  however, i had known most of the remaining people through the power of the internet for a while so it was fun to meet and get to know each other in person finally.  here’s a few shots from the first day.
