Take a walk with me..

Krewe of Eris – The Swarm

by angeliska on February 18, 2008

On the Sunday before Mardi Gras, the street were overtaken by a gorgeous swarm of insects- The Krewe of Eris! This convivial promenade of bugs and beetles reminded me of The Butterfly Ball, both the poem by William Roscoe, written (…)

Lundi Gras Valentine

by angeliska on February 14, 2008
