This Is The City I was working in Los Angeles, which was fun because I grew up there, well, really in Long Beach, which is different but kind of the same. I was doing another book assignment with a long list of potential subjects. One was The Disney Music Hall. I wandered around the entire…

Light ‘Em Up
Light. That’s how pictures are made. It’s not even debatable until it is. Photography is Greek (No, it’s not all Greek to me) for either painting with light, or, drawing with light. That’s how it was. That’s how it is. That’s how it always will be. It will remain that way no matter how many…

Downtown
There’s too much. Too much of everything. Too many pictures. Too many words. Too many blogs. Too many people trying to be what they aren’t. I probably opened my mouth when I should have kept it closed. I was reading a rather vacuous blog when someone chimed in and said her daughter’s teacher wanted her…

If you’ve wandered around the streets of Paris going into neighborhoods that aren’t on the tourist must see list, you’ll see buildings like this one. In The…

Just Another Day
A major discussion took place in my brain. It was along the lines of save it or hold it. Knowing that I would probably lose it within my archives. Rather than hold it, I published it. Obviously, it’s just another day in New Orleans. No. No. No. It’s Halloween. The very night of the holiday…

Down on the Corner
T he age of experimentation continues. I found out yesterday that I had no idea how to change the color of the tag cloud or the calendar. I’m sure instructions are buried deep in the 900 pages of “how to” notes. Until I find it, you won’t be seeing those blocks again. Today, I’m experimenting…

He Went to Paris
I ‘ve made a change. You’ll figure it out. It comes under the heading of who was I really hurting? In these pandemic days when many people aren’t able to travel, it’s possible to get a European fix right here in New Orleans. After all, we are a French, Spanish and American place. Much of…
