One of those lucky chances, on business in New Orleans I had an opportunity to escape for a couple of hours with some newly found keen photographer friends who wanted to take some pictures of one of the cemeteries in the city which are pretty unique. On the way back walking down Bourbon St this chap (unknown to us at the time - Poppa Neutrino) was just setting up outside the Cafe Beignet and was very obliging - so certainly not candid. Unfortunately I only had my point & squirt with me so have converted it to BW and blurred the background in PS to give it a bit more effect. It is really worth checking Poppa out he has had a very special life, a real character. Update- in Jan 2011 unfortunately Poppa passed away, please see next picture.
