Real lens flare and vignettes. Also a beach with cars on it!
Reasons to drive all the way out to Florida in March: Chilly, quiet beach.
Nothing to see here, move along. Next time we'll go when it's warmer.

Anniversary this week. Yay! These roses are from someone
else's wedding but they are quite pretty. I was testing out
my dad's old Minolta using the "carry it around and shoot
random things" method.

Destruction. It seems relevant now that a new Tulane Stadium is going up. I have a few more scans from the same roll.
Clay's grandfather took these. The contact print that went with the negatives is dated April 1980. I'm not sure these were ever printed, as I found the negatives and no prints a year or two ago. I printed the second one (I think) some time back.

These people, with the silent film costumes, were so well done.
If you know these two, please send them my way?
Fixtures of my childhood. Because I come from the kind of
family that loves heckling people.
There are always a few of these people wandering the quarter
on Mardi Gras, and they always look great.
I think this needs no explanation.
Escape from Carnival. Once again, I don't have very good pictures
of that giant trojan horse contraption. Or any of the guy running
a large-format camera out front of Mimi's. Then again, the point
is to go out and enjoy the holiday.

Krewe d'Etat takes on the new Tulane Stadium. Along the side,
there's a caption saying "Where is everybody? My guess is Bruno's."
Also somewhat surprisingly, Ignatius J. Romney as well.
This one, of course, is a no-brainer.
We live near Endymion now, and I saw the parade in mid-city for
the first time since 2004. Last time before that was 1991. They
like long floats in this here parade...

Carnival is upon us and I already have sore feet and a really insane Muses shoe. These Krewe du Vieux pictures are brought to you by Fujifilm Superia 800 and the fine art of running a manual camera with a beer in one hand.

A mid-January black and white printing project brought to you by the downstairs kitchen at our house, and a whole lot of blackout curtain.
KDV pictures are at the developer. Soon.
Also, local friends: we live by the start of Endymion now. Pending the weather I am sure we are having some sort of party or other considering Clay's birthday is that week.

I decided to gather up some Citroëns for the new year. I found this ultra-rare Citroën SM driving to work at UNO one day this past summer. It was parked on the street waiting for its turn in a movie shoot.
This is one of the cars worth being late to work or school.
Vent badging!
The other two Citroëns are purveyors of excellent coffee.
French Truck Coffee in their restored 1975 Citroën 2CV Fourgonette.
Brigade Coffee in their 1978 Citroën H-Van.
Brigade's most excellent grille chevrons.
My new year's resolution as it were is simple: take more car pictures.

Been cooking most of the day, will probably also cook much of the night. Have a good holiday y'all.

Taken last spring, chasing a sunset the night of Clay's Turbomachinery final in May. Of course, I didn't see the picture until November because it's on 120. This may explain why I feel like I am not good at instagram.

The answer to the question "what IS that thing in your parents' front yard?" It was bought in 1929, and it sat in the front yard at my great-grandmother's house in Mississippi until shortly after she died back in 2000. The story of exactly what was paid for it seems to change depending on who I ask, but I've heard it may have involved mortgaging a cow.

A few things from the trip this summer. All on FujiPro 400H. Good luck you guys. Don't run the city out of beer.

We now live a few blocks from this nice black swan. All moved,
but definitely not all unpacked. A couple of days ago I heard
the City Park train whistle while sitting on the porch. So cool.

We are making poor Susie very bored sitting at home waiting for
the rain to show up and for the power to go out. Hopefully
Isaac will continue to be a boring storm.
The power has been going out at this house about every other
week all summer, so I have zero faith in the local grid to
withstand even this minor of a hurricane.
See you all on the other side.
