Close Read: American Pastimes

Below are the photos you may choose from for next week's in-class close read essay. You will be responsible for just one photo. The photos represent various unique pastimes across America. Again, you will be examining the ways in which Americans spend their free time. The goal is to closely analyze a photo in order to reveal new levels of understanding. We will discuss how this is done in class this week.

Photographer Unknown, "The Tough Mudder" (West Dover, Vermont; 2012)

Jeff Lautenberger, "The Night Rider" (Tulsa, Oklahoma; 2011)
