Had the great fortune to go to New Orleans for the first time last weekend. The very last night, the city was surrounded in fog, and I made the decision to go back out from my hotel around 10:30 pm to see what I could catch handheld with my best lens (24-70, 2.8 Tamron), and it didn't disappoint!
Full of drama in b&w! How brave you are going out alone at that time with your camera! I certainly wouldn’t go into my local town with my camera unless I was in a large group!
Oooohhhh -- yes, atmosphere and moodiness. I've taken this photo several ties but never considered it in black and white, and it's perfect! Wait, you were in NOLA in February -- OMG what is wrong with us? I was there February 8 - 9 - 10 and I could easily have extended before or after to meet up with you!!!
