New Orleans Street Scene

Took this this early morning shot in New Orleans in a more industrial area near the French Quarter in May 2009. Went for a run and saw this colorful street scene near the hotel. Since I started taking shots more regularly, I am always on the look out for color. Went back after the run to catch this shot and got lucky to get a picture without cars or people wandering about. I waited just long enough to catch a clear moment. Luck always favors the prepared.
