We passed through New Orleans twice \u2014 in December and again in January \u2014 on the way from Texas to Florida, and then on the way back.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Few would dispute that New Orleans has a unique character. All great cities do, of course, but New Orleans has a totally special flavor about it. I could write a book.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
This couple is in their nineties. But as you see, they are truly young at heart, in a way that couples (and individuals) five, six, or seven decades younger would do well to learn and emulate.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Age is a state of mind, and nothing will keep you young like having someone to love who loves you back every day more and more.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
We met this couple by pure happenstance. They were only too happy to pose for a photoshoot, which lasted all of ten or twelve minutes, at most.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
When my subject radiates joy of this caliber, I basically just hold the camera, and the photos practically take themselves.<\/div>\n
