Alessandro Simonetti, Photographer, New York

Description

This close-up photographic portrait captures the side profile of a Black man wearing a sparkling diamond stud earring in his earlobe. A light grey, lustrous durag is wrapped tightly across his head, with the textured fabric clearly visible in the harsh, directional sunlight. The natural lighting casts deep shadows along his jawline and neck, accentuating his skin texture and short facial hair. The composition is tightly cropped to focus intimately on the ear, earring, and headwear.
