We left New Orleans this morning after a night of not as much sleep as we’d like. Some party of early 20′s kids rented out an entire side of the same floor we were on and decided to make lots of noise all through the day and night. But anyway, we decided to hit a plantation on the way out of town, and that was pretty cool. But something happened there that really bummed me out. My three year old Nikon camera may be done. There’s a problem with the internal software that is causing problems writing the images to the card while also locking up the entire camera. It erased (or didn’t record) a number of images that I took earlier, and it really pisses me off because not only is my camera probably dead, but it was the perfect infrared conditions in a really unique setting.

The two images on this posting are a few of the surviving images. The bottom one is an infrared image, and the top one is a standard one… All of the images from the trip that I have posted online are in a set within my Flickr account. My wife also has a set on her Flickr account for your viewing pleasure…

I am writing this from Memphis, and we’ll be waking up to hit Graceland in the morning. Then it’s back home for a few last days of rest before going back to the grind. I’m more worried about what I’m going to do about the camera…
