THE KALEIDOSCOPIC colours of New Orleans have been captured in a series of stunning shots.
A shocking pink sportscar in front of a pastel pink house, a vibrant turquoise house with wooden shutters, and a tiny bright yellow home are shown off in a photo project showing off the âBig Easyâsâ bohemian neighbourhoods.

Other incredible images include a tattered white/blue truck in front of a well-presented property and an eye-catching blue and red house in stark contrast to an orange American motorcar.
The photos were captured by Michael J. Dalle-Molle, 27, who is hoping to lend a unique take on New Orleansâ staggering beauty.

He has collated his pictures on Instagram after starting the project in 2016.
âMy photographs are not meant to be viewed individually, which is one of the reasons Instagram has worked so well as the vehicle for this project,â explained Michael.
âThese photographs, one after the other, are intended to be viewed in multiples so the viewer can see how the colours, shapes, lines, forms, and details of our architecture – across all neighbourhoods, rich and poor – ties together to create a truly unique style.
âI absolutely love shooting architecture and houses, the more colourful the better. There is something about New Orleans’ homes that speaks to me in a deep way.â

New Orleans is typically associated with the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 which left 80 per cent of the city flooded, hundreds dead, and saw a mass exodus of residents in the years after the natural disaster.
But Michaelâs photos show there is still life in the city yet, and still countless examples of inspiring architecture and paintwork across the metropolis.
âThis project has become a storybook of sorts, showing people the unique beauty of New Orleans’ architecture at eye level – the way I see it,â added Michael.

âI want the message of my project to be different for everyone that gets pleasure out of these photographs.
âFor some it is the colours, for others it is the details in craftsmanship… For me, it is just about capturing that perfect moment that shows the world how beautifully we live down here.â
