I enjoyed trying to photograph the St Charles Ave trolleys, from the
inside and the outside. The Garden District has some interesting
structures and locales, as does Audubon Park. There are nice river
views, with some interesting boats, and people watching along the
Moon Walk. Also, the

I've never been to New Orleans before, so I'm not quite sure what to expect. My
only exposure to it has been via TV film, and we all know how accurate those

Thanks, Dan!
Someone else in another forum mentioned Louis Armstrong Park for local

I appreciate the tips!

I forgot about Louis Armstrong Park. It's off Bourbon Street, IIRC,
and has statues of Jazz greats. There was usually a band playing
there, and a place to buy cafe au lait and beignets. It's a good spot
for people watching, as are Cafe du Monde and the area around St Louis

Worthy of snapping, Godfrey. Here in central CA, we had clouds that were as
red as I've ever seen. Had I shot them, It would be assumed I'd juiced the

The party was after a messenger race. It also was the model's birthday. A few
minutes before Modesty was snapped Toby was doing this:

I do believe there was a cause and effect thing happening. ;-)
Thanks for the comment, Dan.
Thanks, Godfrey!
Jesse won the race, promptly passed out and revived himself by the end of the

You really must have a beignet from Cafe Du Monde
http://www.cafedumonde.com/ a great place for a coffee, a pastry and some
people watching.
Been to New Orleans for several trials, never had the time to explore the
city much, but always had the time for Cafe Du Monde.

Jackson Square is a must.
also, head for The Garden District for a nice walk-about.
I'll confess I haven't been there since the year before Katrina, but I
think the French Quarter and the Garden District were not so much
altered by that storm.
But the main thing to do in New Orleans is eat
Walt,
Here are some thoughts:
I would recommend going to Frenchman Street, - while this has many
tourists (which part of NOLA doesn't?), it has several interesting
musical bars, and you can find some interesting music most of the
days/nights. My personal preference would be The Spotted Cat:

Very interesting, Ann. Dracaenas are not frost tolerant so presumably yours
is growing indoors? They are indigenous to sub-Saharan Africa. I have
several species growing wild in my equally wild garden. Related Cordylines
too. They flower every year but only two give off that heady fragrance
