Ben Watts, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This photographic portrait by Ben Watts presents a close-up shot of a young male wrestler captured against a plain white background. The subject wears a red wrestling singlet and a matching white and red protective headgear strapped securely under his chin. His face displays visible signs of competition, including minor scratches and abrasions on his right cheek and a tan adhesive bandage bridging his nose. The lighting is direct and even, highlighting the raw textures of his skin and the athletic gear. The composition is a tightly framed head-and-shoulders study focusing directly on the athlete's expression.
