Mann oh Mann

Sally Mann was a photographer I studied at  high school and until recently I had kind of forgotten about her. I was rummaging through some old note books and came across this photo.

 
-Candy Cigarette (1989)

I remember using this photo as an example for something in photography class, it  was pretty funny standing in the middle of the school drive pretending to smoke a cigarette....ahhh nostalgia.

 
-One Big Snake (1991)

-untitled, at twelve series (Lanna and her doom) (1983-85)

-untitled, at twelve series (1983-85)

There is something a bit creepy about her style but that's what I love about it. Her photos remind me of endless summers and being a stroppy youth.
