Photoessay #118 - First day of school


Naomi, age 17, first day of school, junior year in high school. In our living room. We had discussions about the neckline of the dress, the situation somewhat mitigated with a safety pin. Arguments about apparel are generally futile. After the first day, she returned to her usual outfits of t-shirts. maybe she wanted to make a statement on that all important first day.

But looking good, confident on her return to school. I know scattered around my possessions are many other 'first day of school' pictures.

Pride and confidence in that picture. Neck line is questionable but a safety pin in negotiation sounds like a good compromuse.

I'm always happy on t-shirt days.
