Nags Head, North Carolina (#29), June-August 1975
1975, printed 2011

A vintage police car is parked in front of a small white house with a person standing on the porch wrapped in a towel. A police officer is leaning on the hood of the car, writing something on a notepad. The setting appears to be a quiet, rural area with a clear sky overhead.
