Hotel Fountain, Metairie, LA - 2012
(Click on photo to enlarge.)
I just returned from a trip to New Orleans to attend my Mother's funeral. Of course, I brought my camera on the trip, but there wasn't much time for sight-seeing. After the funeral planning was completed, we had a little time to kill Monday afternoon, so we drove around town for a little while, looking at how some things had changed since Katrina. New Orleans is a paradise for photography, but I found I wasn't much in the mood for pictures that day. In fact, I only made 33 exposures on the entire 4 day trip. Normally, that could be an hour's take.
I made this photo of a fountain in the courtyard of the hotel where we stayed. It was in a quiet place where I sat a few times to think and pray. There's just something about the sound of the water flowing in the fountain that was very soothing.

A very comforting photo John. I love the sound of water trickling. It can sooth the soul.
Your Mood was family not photos. Understandable and the way it should have been.
