  • 29 August 2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. Lower 9th ward. On the one year anniversary of hurricane Katrina, and most of the area remains derelict and abandoned. Restricted access. TV news camera crews take over deserted streets and set up live satellite feeds, blocking public streets and creating an authorised only person zone for reporters and crew. Off duty cops on overtime ensure the area is kept free of people without credentials to enter the zone.<br />

Contractors working for the BP Onshore Safety Task force survey the beach before sending out a clean up crew. Following recent storms in the Gulf of Mexico, tar balls, oil particles and and vast oil mats from the BP Deepwater Horizon Macondo Well continue to wash ashore in abundance. 3 1/2 years since the worst oil spill in history and on the eve of a potentially historic penalties which could be as high as $18 billion being levied against British Petroleum by the Federal Government, it is clear that BP's problems will not go away any time soon.

  • 23 July 2010. Barataria Bay near Grand Isle, Louisiana. <br />
A 'floatel' passes by heading inland away from the coast as tropical storm 'Bonnie' threatens the Gulf of Mexico. BP contractors prefer to house clean up crew workers in these floating container motels to save a few lousy dollars rather than station workers on land where they would benefit the local economy. Already reeling from poor decisions and an economic and environmental disaster thanks to BP's catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the corporation continues to oversee economic devastation wreaked on local communities. Private contractors continue to get rich taking BP's cash as local economies flounder. 'Floatels' do not benefit local communities in any way. BP contractors bring all food and supplies to the 'floatels.' In an area both economically and ecologically devastated by BP, this would appear to be yet another slap in the face to struggling local economies - and all to save a few bucks to make a few contractors even wealthier than they already are! This should be a national disgrace. <br />

Jimmy Terrebonne Snr sits surrounded by oil boom on his boat in Barataria Bay. The shrimp boater should be sweeping the waters for up to $5,000 worth of beautiful Gulf shrimp a day but the fishing grounds are all closed. Instead he is making around $1,000 a day for oil for BP contractors instead, a fraction of what he would ordinarily be making with bills mounting at home. The fisherman does not have a fixed contract within BP and does not know when BP will stop hiring him. He does however know that his life will never be the same again. The ecological and economic impact of BP's oil spill is devastating to the region. Oil from the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe is evading booms laid out to stop it thanks in part to the dispersants which means the oil travels at every depth of the Gulf and washes ashore wherever the current carries it. The Louisiana wetlands produce over 30% of America's seafood and are the most fertile of their kind in the world.<br />

Shiek of the Arabi Wrecking Krewe helps clear a house of mold in the Gentilly neighbourhood. As federal, state and local authorities dither, members of the Arabi Wrecking Krewe, many of them musicians themselves, team up to strip homes of fellow musicians ready to be repaired. To date the Krewe has stripped over 40 homes.  <br />

  • 06 June 2010. Barataria Bay to Grand Isle, Jefferson/Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. <br />
Shrimpers surrounded by oil boom on their boat in Barataria Bay. The shrimp boaters should be sweeping the waters for up to $5,000 worth of beautiful Gulf shrimp a day but the fishing grounds are all closed. Instead they are making around $1,000 a day for  BP contractors instead, a fraction of what they would ordinarily be making. The fishermen do not have  fixed contracts with BP and does not know when BP will stop hiring them. The debt collectors have been calling asking for their money. The shrimpers advise them to call BP. They know their lives will never be the same again. The ecological and economic impact of BP's oil spill is devastating to the region. Oil from the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe is evading booms laid out to stop it thanks in part to the dispersants which means the oil travels at every depth of the Gulf and washes ashore wherever the current carries it. The Louisiana wetlands produce over 30% of America's seafood and are the most fertile of their kind in the world.<br />

  • 12th October, 2013. Wisner Beach, Port Fourchon, Louisiana.<br />
Regular police patrols on the currently closed beach. Following recent storms in the Gulf of Mexico, tar balls, oil particles and and vast oil mats from the BP Deepwater Horizon Macondo Well continue to wash ashore in abundance. 3 1/2 years since the worst oil spill in history and on the eve of a potentially historic penalties which could be as high as $18 billion being levied against British Petroleum by the Federal Government, it is clear that BP's problems will not go away any time soon.

  • 18th Feb, 2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. The first parades of Mardi Gras 2006. Krewes from Pegasus and Sparta dismount their floats on Tchoupitoulas Street in the Central Business district where they laugh and joke and dispense the last of their beads and floats to the waiting crowds celebrating the return of Mardi Gras to New Orleans.

  • 17th Feb, 2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. Preparations for Mardi Gras are in full swing at Blaine Kern's Mardi Gras World at the company's headquarters on the West Bank of the city. Staff are running at full speed ahead to have floats, props and preparations in place for Mardi Gras Krewes to roll in the next few weeks as Mardi Gras descends on the ravaged city of New Orleans. Laughing in the face of adversity. Business owner Blaine Kern shares a joke with artist Charles Bendzans as he decorates the god of thunder for Orpheus parade float. Mr Kern aims to have all floats ready for the parades, despite the adverse affects of hurricane Katrina.

  • 11th Feb, 2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. A horse towing a float falls and is unable to get up as Mardi Gras begins with the traditional walking parade of Krewe du Vieux. Starting in the Faubourg Marigny and winding its way through the French Quarter, thousands of people lined the streets to enjoy one of the things New Orleans does best. A great street party was had by all who attended. Satire abounded in the costumes, poking fun at government and FEMA response to Hurricane Katrina. The horse survived the ordeal and was later able to get up and walk away.

However a crew of undocumented Honduran immigrants work in the mid day heat to repair a roof, overlooking the devastation all around them. A small symbol of hope amidst the rubble.
