New Orleans has an undercurrent of the macabre. I've never been to a graveyard there, but I can only imagine how voodoo believers enter eternity.

Doesn't Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails have an old mausoleum door on his recording studio there?

I wanted cemeteries so I could experiment in B&W, but if you're going there, I'll take lost and discarded. At least there's lots of garbage around here. LOL.
