Black, white and lots of gray



I was surprised, when looking at my photos of New Orleans, how most of them turned out monochromatic. There are some you'd think were taken with black and white film, even, like this one of graffiti near Jackson Square.

We're processing like mad about New Orleans and plan to post our thoughts about the devastation we saw very soon. At the moment, we're leaving Caroline's in Tampa to head to Orlando, where we'll tuck in for a few days, do laundry and get our heads around all the things we saw there on our amazing tour of some most-hit neighborhoods.

In the meantime, I wholly recommend going to New Orleans yourselves and checking it out. It's an experience you'll never forget. The media can't begin to portray how widespread the damage is, even 10 months after Katrina. And a lot of businesses are open, especially in the French Quarter, and hoping for more people to drop some dollars into the economy. We did our part on that front, at least.

For those of us who won't be getting to New Orleans anytime soon, please post more details. The world needs to know.
