Anne Menke, Photographer, New York

Description

An overhead aerial photograph captures a group of seven female surfers lying flat on their surfboards arranged in a circular radial pattern on a textured sandy beach. Each woman rests atop a distinct surfboard of varying colors and lengths, with their heads pointed inward toward the center and feet outward. They wear long-sleeved rash guards and swimwear in diverse patterns and shades. The composition creates a flower-like geometric shape against the natural grain of the sand. Natural daylight illuminates the scene evenly from above, highlighting the wet and dry patches of sand.
