I loved the way people dressed up for Mardi Gras in the French Quarter, some of them a little more risqué than others. I felt that these people generally ignored the parades and headed for the FQ, which added another dynamic to carnival season. 2011
A common bug in Mardi Gras parades was the frequent delays as the lead truck encountered low power lines, this often lead to frustrated parade riders, such as these McDonough band members at General Pershing, 2010.
The Saints NFL Super Bowl Parade was dubbed 'Lombardi Gras' and it took an *age* to roll on a cold night in New Orleans. I didn't take many photos, but i did like this one, even if a little more abstract. 2010
