Benjamin Rasmussen, Photographer, Denver

Description

This portrait by photographer Benjamin Rasmussen captures a person seated from behind in a small wooden boat, navigating through a dense waterway bordered by tall green grass and lush vegetation. The subject wears a dark long-sleeved top and a vibrant striped head covering in shades of pink and purple. A wooden paddle extends outward from the side of the boat into the surrounding foliage. Natural daylight illuminates the scene, highlighting the textures of the tall reeds and the weathered wooden structure of the boat. The composition is captured in a vertical orientation with an observational documentary feel.
