Sunday Postcard - Mardi Gras


A bit of the French Quarter, and a couple of exotic masks hopefully capture the spirit of Mardi Gras. Here's to New Orleans, rising from the ashes of Katrina!

  14. Couldn't find an email adress so I place another comment here. Thanks for your kind comment on my blog. I found out about the Mardi Gras colours on Wikepedia. And on Google Images. It made the challenge a bit easier because it gave me an idea on how to work out this theme. José
