This lovely lady has the most elaborate costume in the Mardi Gras Parade, but we can only only see a portion of her wonderful mask & headdress. Enjoy !

Hi Lauren, WOW, how positively well chosen is the title!! Perfect! The colors are very hard to describe, except to say they are just brilliant, vibrant, fun and exciting to view! It is still incomprensible to me how such color can be produced artificiallly! Until I learn more, redirect my interest, it will remain a mystery to me, smiling! Good work as usual! Sincerely, Marilyn

This one reminds me of a dragon, Great colors and design but it feels incomplete.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

Never question if you are in love or not, because if you were you wouldn't need to ask.

Mardi Gras...perfect! The colors, the over-the-top costume...but I'm thinking Mardi Gras in Rio rather than New Orleans...can't you just see the parade and the lights, hear the music, feel the heat...This is so hot!

Wonderful tribute for Fat Tuesday! There she goes, down Bourbon Street, the music is loud, but she whoops and yells even louder. She dances as she walks, moving her hips, feet never stopping, the celebration goes on and on, into the night...and so does she....

Don't slap me around for saying this but I'm just not feeling this picture much at all. That probably has less to do with your ability and more to do with the whole Mardi Gras theme. :P
