The King of Bourbon Street

Pine Hill, NJ

The King of Bourbon Street and his entourage traveling down in colorful costumes making his presence known to all the revelers. There are other images made in this series. I decided to use these three, The King of Bourbon Street, Mardi Gras and Parade Dancer, to represent my vision of Mardi Gras.

Parade Dancer

Pine Hill, NJ

When I started working on the bark abstracts I noticed that several reminded me of dancers at Mardi Gras. I saved those images to display for this week. This is number 2 in the series Mardi Gras. A masked reveler dancing in the night in New Orleans. Each tree bark of the series was photographed here on our property in Pine Hill, NJ.

MARDI GRAS

Pine Hill, NJ

This week is Mardi Gras. Bill and I have never been there. But while I was working on my bark abstract series I would every once in awhile find an image that looked like it belonged walking down a New Orleans street strutting to the sound of Dixieland. This is one of the first images. Over the next several days I will add some more.
