Everywhere we walked in New Orleans had lots of these little trolleys – each one was decorated differently.

So about my trip that I mentioned on Sunday about our trip but I didn’t go into any of the details.

That’s right we went to New Orleans and we had SO much fun. For a photo junkie like myself, a trip to a 200+ year old city is like letting a five-year old loose in a candy shop. I loved all the historic architectural elements. After editing through some pictures I realized I had a ton that I absolutely love. You’ll be enduring several posts about New Orleans – good thing we weren’t there a whole week.
If there’s one thing I loved more than taking pictures it was the easy laid back attitude and adorable accent that is so prevalent. Combine a beautiful French accent with some casual country feel and you have your typical New Orleans native. OK onto some more pictures:






I just got back from a trip this weekend (more on the trip later). If you take as many pictures as I do you’ll inevitably get used to the popular “What are you taking a picture of?” questions by those around you. My wonderful husband has gotten used to this quirky habit and doesn’t usually complain (unless it’s of him) although our friends who joined us on this trip didn’t have the appropriate warning. Yes I’m that girl that’s constantly shooting ANYTHING I find interesting around me. Yes I realize some think I have Chinese blood coursing through me.
I take pictures of a lot of of common things around me for several reasons:
1. Maybe I really love using my camera and will use any excuse?
2. Maybe I don’t always have a sunset, portrait, or gorgeous flower to shoot?
3. Maybe I find beauty in the everyday items that most would pass over?
4. Maybe my aforementioned husband HATES having his picture taken and I don’t have a slave munchkin – I can force my shooting on?
OK so now that we have that out of the way. I promise all of my future posts won’t be of some random item but this isn’t one of those posts.

I’ll have plenty of pictures up soon, in fact I filled up my memory card from 8am until about 3pm yesterday.

I spent some time on the Plaza on Saturday. You can always count on having something to shoot there with all the wonderful architecture.
