This photograph explores Mary Ellen Mark's style by showing the documentary side of her images. I choose to photograph one person and show them in different periods of the day and night. This photograph shows the night time in a secluded area smoking a cigarette. Most of Mark's photographs are people smoking cigarettes because they are a sign of stress or "addiction." I also explored the black and white photography that Mark uses a lot throughout her images.

  1. I really like the alteration between black and white and sepia. I also liked that you used the same person but in different poses and areas
