Text, lower left: Baton Rouge ~ New Orleans ~ Lake Pontchartrain ~ shady verandahs & white wooden houses ~ classical porticos ~ azaleas blooming, scent of wisteria in humid night ~ voodoo charms ~ claws & feathers ~ African rites come to roost in city streets ~ snapping turtles in tranquil waters. Fat Tuesday before Ash Wednesday ~ dust & desire washed away by rain |
