The end of innocence
For most people May 1st is though of as a celebration of labor and socialist movement. For others it’s just another excuse to celebrate a day off work (including myself). The same day however marks the birth of Sally Mann, an American photographer that has produced some of the most unique photographs during the past two decades and has also stirred substantial controversy due to her favorite subject (young children, including her own). I could start analyzing her work and the emotions she tries to invoke through her photographs, but I’m sure you can easily find this in other articles all over the web. Guess it was just another excuse to enjoy some of her work again and the opportunity to express my disgust on how narrow minded and plain stupid people can get in today’s modern-conservatism hypocritical society.
