Quick before I lose the connection...a feel for my surroundings in New Orleans
A few street shots from NOLA

I'm choosing portraits that I can grab quickly. I can't imagine how come after days of not being able to I'm on line.

Girls at a street corner



The guy on the left wanted my T-shirt (inscription, simply Helvetica white on black: "Oh Crap"), he offered me one in exchange but it was too dirty to put on)



This is Jill from Taiwan. Traveling alone, and leaving for New York the next day.
Met her in front of Preservation Hall where we went to hear some mindblowing Jazz



And this is a person who does not know I took her photo, in one of NOLA's famous and awe inspiring above ground cemeteries
