Alex Farnum, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This portrait photograph by Alex Farnum captures a black woman in her 50s gently petting a mottled chicken in Los Angeles. She wears thick black framed glasses, a denim shirt, and a bright red quilted vest over her arms. The composition is a tight mid-shot with a shallow depth of field, focusing closely on the woman and the bird against an out-of-focus natural backdrop. Her expression is calm and attentive as her hand rests softly on the chicken's head. The natural lighting highlights the textures of her clothing and the detailed plumage of the chicken.
