Description

An elderly man with a long grey beard and hair lies flat on his back, relaxing on a bed of smooth coastal stones. He is wearing a long-sleeved cream top and olive-green cargo shorts, with his hands clasped behind his head. The natural lighting highlights the varied textures of the smooth river rocks and pebbles beneath him. The portrait is captured from a high angle, looking down at the subject against the natural background.
