Carter Smith, Photographer, Los Angeles
About
This black and white photograph by Carter Smith captures a young couple walking up the stone steps of the Great Wall of China. The man wears a dark uniform jacket with a light belt, while the woman wears a light-colored dress and holds her hand up to shield her eyes from the sun. The ancient wall winds dramatically across the steep, mountainous terrain in the background, with other visitors visible in the distance. The composition uses a high-angle perspective to emphasize the expansive scale of the monument.
