DescriptionA black and white photograph taken at night. The background is entirely dark. The flash of the camera lights a semi circle in the bottom third of the frame illuminating a bright amorphous blob in the center foreground. A wooden post with two attached clotheslines droop above the blob from left to right. A single pair of pants hangs upside down and are pinned on the rear clothesline. Two more pairs of pants are hung next to each other in the same way on the nearest clothesline.
