Description


This image of course is not him riding his horse in the Louisiana Capital building to accept the Governorship in Louisiana when he won. he rode the horse up the steps and into the building , got the horse on the elevator and into the room where he give his accepted speech. then he rode the horse out. here you see the saddle in the room he sleep in at the Governor Manson. that what the tour guide told us. Jimmie Davis also build the Sunshine Bridge also. They say it goes no where back then and I rode over it a few weeks ago and it still goes no wheres lol. he have the gold records he made and the records are gold color and they for real too. Back then a gold record is really is gold. You can look him up on Google and it will give you a lot of what he did in his life. do not tell all the dumb stuff he do. Just made a goof off Governor look good that all. At lest his saddle do look good. I have my Nikon D90 and the smallest len sige is 70MM . some one say I can shot a room with a lot of photos and use Ice to put them together. You have to remember this is a small rooms here and I had to step outside the room just to get this shot in focus. Just like the room with the painted wall paper I had to be outside the room to shot. In a way useing a len like this make you really think of how to get the shot and it will test your skills to the limits. try it one day.
