What is Reno style? Suppose your editor wants a photo essay on Reno Style for next week. Take a photograph (it needs to be your own photo) that captures the essence of Reno style or culture. What is visually distinctive about Reno culture?
You may select a subculture or a counterculture that exists in Reno as the focus this assignment. In your blog, post the photo and discuss its specific qualities using the 6 points from the Lester textbook. Conclude your post by discussing the relationship between your photograph and the meaning of Reno style.
