esterday was almost useless. Since I believe there are no useless days, that’s saying something. I had one of those days where everything went wrong. Luckily, they were little things. The espresso machine started the day, by doing something funky. The mouse batteries died without warning. Two lightbulbs burned out. And, so it went right up until the time I went to sleep.
Today is a new day that started off much better. Thankfully.
I made this picture on a walk through the French Quarter. You’ve seen another version of it. This time I cropped the heart of it and started playing with it. This version isn’t quite what I intended. I wanted to make the picture darker, but when I did that I lost too much detail. I thought that detail was important in this particular image.
Sometimes photography is about compromise and choices.
I’d have a little trouble putting into words precisely what it is about this photo that I love, but I hope it will be enough just to know that I think it’s a favorite.

You should come. It’s a fairly self contained and interesting area.
