Crescent City Connection

ByKelly Williams, Photographer

In November, I took a trip to New Orleans.  My first trip there.  I’m glad to say I’ve been, and I would like to return to see more of New Orleans and of Louisiana at large.  I feel like my trip was limited to that of the perspective of a tourist, and that there is much more to see far and wide in Louisiana.  This post marks the first in a series of photos from the trip.  Every day I went somewhere new in New Orleans, and each day had a completely different tone.  As such, I’m splitting up the photos from the trip into separate postings.  Let’s begin with the Crescent City Connection…

A Manhattanhenge Moment

ByKelly Williams, Photographer

As the saying goes, ‘if you can’t beat ‘em, then join ‘em.’  Yesterday’s Manhattanhenge viewing on the streets of NYC was pure chaos.  I remember when Manhattanhenge (as with so many other NYC events) used to be low-key and something that only a few people knew about.  Perhaps due to the Memorial Day holiday, the…
