DescriptionA black and white photograph of a female figure standing before a picnic table with her back to an explosion recently detonated. The plume of smoke lingers in the background. She holds a drinking glass in one hand and a detonator in the other. She has long curled hair and wears a skirt and blouse. Her form is blurred from the chin down and she smiles stiffly. The table is set with plates, drinks, and food containers. The scene is enclosed by a dense forest at Humboldt State Park in California.
