The Star Spangled Banner can be seen everywhere in the USA. Driving down a highway you reguarly see huge mastheads that carry the [...]

This photo is of Royal Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans on Mardi Gras Day 2009. This was my favourite street in New Orleans during the festival - artisans and fabulously quirky, cooky people of all ages flock here to display their homemade costumes and to escape the drunken frat-boy debauchery of Bourbon [...]

Unfortunately he wasn’t too [...]
