Cathrine Wessel, Photographer, New York

Description

An action-oriented vertical photograph captures a man longboarding down a winding, wet asphalt mountain road. The subject is crouched low over his board, wearing a black helmet featuring a brand logo, a traditional blue and white patterned wool sweater with blue sleeves, dark trousers, and bright red sliding gloves. One gloved hand grazes the wet pavement as he executes a sharp slide, kicking up a dynamic spray of water droplets around the board and wheels. The background reveals a concrete barrier and the dark, moody stone face of a hillside under natural daylight. The composition emphasizes high-speed motion, capturing the intense concentration of the rider against the slick, reflective surface of the road.
