  • The Rain

    Yes. It’s August in Southeaster Louisiana. That means lots of rain storms. Lots of heavy rain coming out of nowhere. And, once in a while, a tropical storm or  –worse — the threat of a hurricane. And, sometimes… oh, never mind. Katrina is history. That said, I have long believed that pictures are everywhere. You…

  • On Ferret Street

    My interest in Central City is partially driven by what happened on Ferret Street, which is now called “The New Ferret Street.” When I attended Loyola University, which is next door to Tulane, Ferret Street was sort of a no go zone. It was run down, crime ridden and pretty much abandoned. It was that…

  • And, On The Fourth of July

    I’m not really a big fireworks kind of guy. So, while I was thinking about what to post today, I came up with the idea of a collection of Americana pictures. So here we go.

  • Something Noisy

    I thought I ‘d start June with a bang. An explosion of motion.  Just a bunch of light, color and blur.  The leading lines are fun, but that’s about all. I made this picture on the streets of Bangkok. Thailand. The content? Well, cars and buses and a bit of the surrounding buildings. But you…

  • A Little Red

    Not just any red. Fuzzy dice red. With an American flag. I thought I’d post this as a walk up to a long Memorial Day weekend. Originally it was called Decoration Day and it was established to honor the Union war dead who were killed during the Civil War (In The United States — for…

  • Zooooooooom

    I think this will be the last image from Hong Kong that I post for a while. Hong Kong has one of the best public transportation systems in the world. Between ferries, the MTR, trams buses and a huge amount of taxis you really don’t need a car. Yet, many people own cars which contributes…

  • Rain. More Rain.

    I was working on a lot of post production yesterday afternoon. I happened to look up at about 4pm and realized that the sky had turned black. Pretty soon the rain began. It really began to fall hard. It looked like a sheet of water coming out of the sky.  By 5:30pm when I needed…

  • I’d Write A Lot…

    Yes. I would write a lot today, but I need a break. I’m sure that you do too. So instead, I’m sharing a taste of this month’s Picture A Day project. I’ll post all of this month’s PAD work on April 1, since I still have a few more pictures to shoot, this being March…

  • Traffic

    Another experiment. This time the image is Bangkok, Thailand traffic which is legendary for being impossible to navigate. I applied a little tilt and swing correction and painted the image.
