Alex Telfer, Photographer, London

About

This intimate portrait captures an elderly man with a closely cropped grey beard and a serious yet contemplative expression. He wears a red and black patterned collared jacket over a dark shirt, paired with a fitted mustard yellow cap on his head. The lighting is low-key and dramatic, casting soft shadows across the man's weathered features and highlighting the intricate texture of his clothing. The background remains dark and indistinct, focusing entirely on the subject. The photograph was captured by photographer Alex Telfer.
