Description
This is a black and white photo of a man posing behind a bale of cotton. The bale of cotton is very loosely wrapped with cotton peeking through tears in its wrapping along the front and top. The man is bent at the hip behind the cotton bale. He is wearing a white Navy uniform with dark accessories, and he is smiling toward the camera. The background is composed of a dimly lit barn where multiple bales of cotton are stacked.
