Sara Macel’s submission
Abandoned Car, New Orleans LA. by Sara Macel
Saint Patrick’s Day Parade, New Orleans LA. by Sara Macel
Sara Macel’s photography stems from her personal life, particularly her relationship with the South. These images are taken from her trip to New Orleans six months after the Hurricane Katrina incident.
Beyond seeking out photographs of the destruction, I was also able to capture images from the city’s the Saint Patrick’s Day parade and remnants from Louisiana’s plantation era. Living and photographing in the South, I have witnessed the region’s familiarity with defeat. From the Civil War to the constant threats of nature and the overwhelming heat, Southerners have an ingrained ability to bear hardship.
Tuesday, the 15th is the deadline so get them in now!!!
