This month I've been posting work from my 29 years of photographing Mardi gras in New Orleans starting in 1990 on my IG page. I have not missed a year (besides this year) but only once, in 2002 I went to Italy to photography carnavale or Mardi gras in Italy, photographing one weekend in Venice and the other in Viareggio.
It was a trip that I bought my new Nikon P5000 digital camera with me. It was a blazing 5 mp and cost me close to $1,000- in $2002! It was wildly slow in terms of shutter lag (you push the button and wait 5 sec for the shutter to click) which put a damper on anything remotely spontaneous and not especially great AF and only shot jpgs. Ah the bleeding edge of technology.
