Alex G. Harper, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This black-and-white portrait by photographer Alex G. Harper features a shirtless man seated indoors next to a window inside a wood-paneled cabin or room. The subject is captured from a medium angle, wearing light-coloured trousers while light streams across his torso and face. Fine droplets are visible on his skin, adding texture to the intimate composition. The high-contrast lighting creates deep shadows that emphasize the architectural wood grain of the walls and the contours of the subject.
