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. The power plant that you see in the middle of the photograph is the Market Street Power Plant, which was decommissioned in 1984. A beautiful piece of dereliction, I might add, that unfortunately I didn't have time to capture with my camera.
New Orleans is a fascinating city to visit which exudes lots of character and personality. Any photographer would drool at all the opportunities to capture the different aspects, from the mansions of the Garden District to the French Quarter. Thanks for looking! FAA watermark WILL NOT appear on final printed image.
