Coco Capitan, Photographer, New York

Description

Captured in an authentic Polaroid format, a woman in a striped long-sleeve shirt steers a wooden wheel aboard a sailing boat on open water. The composition is framed by the wooden rigging overhead and rope lines running vertically down the deck. In the background, choppy blue waves stretch toward the horizon where several other sailboats are visible under a bright, cloudy sky. The natural lighting and characteristic Polaroid border give the image an intimate, candid quality.
