That old house on Decatur—
The shutters keep time with the sax
You can feel the brick loosen,
There’s a trumpet caught in the rafters,
The house leans—not from age,

Decatur Street In New Orleans (12/26/07) — Photo-Artistry by kenne
The above is one of many photo-artistry creations from a photo first created in December 2007 from the photo below.
I use Photoshop
To transform images to art
Pleasing to the eye.

In December of 2007 I took this picture of a building on Decatur Street in New Orleans.
Over the years I have created several photo-art pieces from the original image. Here are just a few.

Decatur Street — French Quarter (2007) — Photo-Artistry by kenne
The Devil Wears French
In the diary of a sinner
there be a Toussaint
tainted with well too many overturesA colorful creole crayon
sashaying in a coupé de ville
Often times
snaking in wait at the nice bars
and gardens that belong to Eden
there be a Toussaint
tainted with well too many overturesA colorful creole crayon
sashaying in a coupé de ville
Often times
snaking in wait at the nice bars
and gardens that belong to Eden
The women there be easy on the Jesus
Gumbo Genevieves smiling pretty
with their crests fallen like moon Indigo
and open to almost anything
especially a charmed tongue
Mon Chéri
it only cost a quarter for that French
Boyhood days in Eve’s bayou spent on
Bourbon street
becoming fluent in the devil’s language
A pig’s latin
the words tend to caress
Mon Chéri…
It only cost a quarter for that French

Fat Tuesday Thoughts — A Little Bit Of Dis, Dat or D’udda 4 comments
New Orleans, Decatur Street — Image by kenne
One of our favorite cities is New Orléans. The list of things we like and places we have been is too long for this posting — only to say with yesterday being Fat Tuesday, our thoughts were fueled by the senses conjuring up the sites, the smells, the people and the music of this very special city along the mighty Mississippi — yes, a little bit of dis, dat, or d’udda!
