Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds.
Minnie West stands right-of-center at the camp site and holds a tent's flap. She faces slightly right and looks to the camera. The tent stands to the right of her and extends outside the frame. Behind her, a table, camping gear and a car sit in the background. In the immediate foreground, the shadow of someone's torso and head enters the image from the bottom edge. At left, a stick protrudes from the brush and a string connects from the top of the stick to the tent. Behind the stick, the trunk of a large tree stands among the shrubs. A mountainside occupies the background in the far distance.
