Homeboys and 'Girls
Favorite Shot: Swimming Upstream
These guys reminded me of salmon swimming upstream as they were trying to "save" everyone in the French Quarter. I found a sort of weird joy in parrying their attempts to save me.
Favorite shot: King cake babies
This is my favorite shot from the project.
Two workers assemble king cakes at Haydel's Bakery in New Orleans, Louisiana by inserting a plastic baby into each cake after it is baked and before the icing and sugar are added. Tradition dictates that the discoverer of the baby in the king cake at a Mardi Gras party is declared king or queen of the party, and must host the next Mardi Gras party.

Welcome to MG 360° blog
Welcome to the Mardi Gras 360° alumni blog. I've out this together so those of us whom survived the inaugural MG360° project to stay in touch, get advice and share photos. Although anyone can view this blog, only invited members can post or comment. I have sent out invites to everyone that I had an email address. If I missed you, email me (mg360degrees at gmail.com) and let me know.
