Photo trip to new orleans/french quarter (very image intensive)

[phatstanley02]

Me and my buddy took a trip across the lake to NO the other day to shoot some photos and here is what I came up with. All shots are taken with a canon xti and canon 50mm f/1.8 lens.

We started out at the Canal St. graveyard (Louisiana is pretty famous for its above ground graves)

Nice photos. Is that a human bone in the photo following the dead bird?

[phatstanley02]

yeah, it appeared as if someone tried to rob the grave. It was a bit creepy seeing it in person

I especially liked the images where you used depth of field to blur the background. Nice images.
