- Physical Description
- Photograph with deep blue tint of a nude man, with his back to viewer, sitting on a porch railing, looking out into into the night. On the viewer's right, along the front of the porch, there is abundant vegetation.
- Subject Matter
- Seeing the natural and everyday as supernatural, spiritual, and special. Dugdale's use of antique photographic techniques gives his work a timeless that speaks to issues of memory, togetherness, and loss. That aura of mortality hangs over this tender image of love and anticipation of togetherness.
