Default Re: Photography Thread

All your old Nikon lenses will fit that, right?
Well, if you HAD any, I guess.

Another of my not quite golden nuggets here. This is the well-known Steamer Natchez
parked at the French Quarter dock with one of New Orleans only real iconic 'skyscrapers',
the International Trade Mart. If you watch JFK, the white-haired dude that Jim Garrison
takes to court to stand trial for conspiracy to ass the prez is said in the script to be the
"guy that owns the Trade Mart". That building behind the steamer is the Trade Mart.
It was the hub of Cental and South American trade through New Orleans. There used to
be a cool rotating bar at the top called The Rain Forest that we always tried to get into
when I was a kid, but walk through it and head to the elevator is all we ever dared to do.
The sun is glinting off of the most recognizable feature of the Aquarium of the Americas
there in the photo as well. This was another dawn photo of this area of town. Might go
back down again this weekend.
