Mardi Gras Moments: The Bead Greed Gallery

March 3, 2009

Here at IT, we’re still on a high from our time in New Orleans last week, so we have a few additional Mardi Gras Moments to share before moving onto our next project. Enjoy!

Associate Photo Editor Krista Rossow took some time on Bourbon Street to document the “Bead Greed” phenomenon that we described in an earlier post. Note: these beads were earned in many different ways; the photographer earned hers by catching them in one hand by holding the camera in the other…fully clothed.
