Description

This black-and-white portrait features a man positioned upside down in the frame, wearing white sports sunglasses and a dark zipped jacket with a high collar. He is seen against a textured concrete or stone surface with a cloudy sky filling the upper portion of the composition. The low-angle, inverted perspective creates a striking graphic quality, emphasizing the stark contrast between the subject and the sky. Natural light highlights the contours of his face and the textures of his clothing. The photograph was captured in New York by photographer Andrés Altamirano.
