Description
I made this panorama of New Orleans and the Crescent City Connection, (formerly the Greater New Orleans Bridge), from the East side, in Gretna, Jefferson Parish. The Mississippi River Trail, built specially for runners and bikers, runs alongside the banks of the river, so I was able to set up my gear comfortable on the side, affording an expansive view of the city and the cantilever bridge.
Staying in Gentilly, a few miles north of the city, I had to beat the rush hour traffic to arrive at dusk underneath the bridge. I had miscalculated the time of my departure from the hotel, so I was feeling anxious while driving, specially because I didn't know where I was going to park my car, and for how long I was going to have to walk to reach this point. Anyways, the view from the east side of the city was marvelous! Thanks for looking. FAA watermark will not show on final printed artwork.
