1983-1985
Sally Mann

This photo is from Sally Mann's series 'at twelve' where she photographed young women. I was drawn to this photo because the subject of the photo is a young twelve year old girl. But in the background is a couple making out or doing something like that. I think its an interesting setting to photograph this girl in. It also is a very real setting, the girl with no shoes and the dogs, and the women in the background is probably her sister or mother, along with the open beer sitting on the car. This whole scene is very realistic, and also reminds of the south.
