Description
This surreal and abstract image was discovered as I was riding my bike to run some errands I rode by the courts, police district headquarters I glanced to my right and then made a 360 turn and stopped to take this photo, It had reminded me of that wire game you would put in yoir palm of your hands or walk down steps, slinky, it slinky,
As a photographer I am constantly taking that visual photo and then use the camera for confirmation.
As usual my camera travels with me everywhere I travel, I used my Nikon 820 macro zoom, manual setting and zoomed the lens thourgh, Hurricane Fencing which the barb wire was connected....The conditions of the New Orleans Jail system in the past was unacceptable and outdated to house cell mates. At times the crime in New Orleans was out of control especially after Hurricane Katrina,,,,A new jail will soon be housing cell mates in a more up to date facility In most cases the crime rate and death rate had sicken the community as a whole the senseless killings and crimes,
The Mayor, police chief, police officers, clergy, parents of victims of crime, citizens held public marches and rallies to finally put an end to crime and killings. That was then and this is now, and the messages were heard and this great American City has its streets back for tourist and locals alike Aware of the negative impact of news events over the years which fell upon New Orleans I am still proud to call it my home. Mankind perhaps around the world will one day live in peace and harmony with one another for future generations and civilizations to co-exist with each other. This is an introduction to a new series No escape From The Other Side To Freedom Reality. It seems society has its impulses regardless here in the United States or anywhere on the globe. Since the beginning of time we have all as a civilization gone through the changes of human instincts. This powerful image would be ideal for any law enforcement facility as a reminder to every inmate the reality of crime you are now imprisoned and guilty until proven innocent by due processes by all the various courts of law.

Great find and capture! Its placing near the courts and police district headquarters may have been deliberate to send subliminal messages to criminals.
