The image is certainly ethnographic in that it attempts to get at the impact of these freeways on the community and society surrounding it. The author can expand more on the juxtaposition of the “clean lines and painted surface” with what is actually happening below. The detail in the design statement that the freeway cuts off north-south traffic might be moved to the critical essay section, b/c the overwhelming first impression of this photo (to my/Rachel's mind) is that of a penitentiary fence. It says 'keep out.'
