I captured this moment as a 'Royal Photographer' during the Krewe of Southdowns Mardi Gras Parade. It was taken during the "King's Pee", when the parade stops rolling and the dignitaries take care of themselves properly. During the 15 minute break, I had enough time to run into a friend's house on the same street for a quick drink and bathroom visit myself, and on the way back to the floats, I truly stumbled over this beautiful moment and young man in the middle of the road. It was nothing even close to quiet as parade marchers socialized and danced in the street. The scene was fantastic, and I took just two shots as he rested and his friends started cheering him on as I photographed from the ground. I'm happy to have gotten his name and shared my contact info with him. He emailed me as promised, and I'll be sending this image his way. Enjoy, Jude!! I really appreciate that we crossed paths. :))
