Street Photography

Smoke and Hug, Jazz Fest, New Orleans, LA

This photo was taken by Henry Horenstein in 1982. Although there is not a lot shown in shot it captures the mood and era perfectly in the close up of a couple from the back with the girls hand thrown over his shoulder holding a cigarette. They are clearly outside in a crowd but the shots focus seems more personal and like this is their story. In the black and white the freckles are also a nice texture and give a sense that they are free and spend a lot of time outside.
