Daniel Sannwald, New York

Description

A striking portrait photograph by Daniel Sannwald captures a man in deep silhouette against a textured surface. The subject is dramatically illuminated by a concentrated blue light source that catches the side of his face and shoulder while casting the rest of his form into shadow. The composition uses high-contrast tonal styling with visible grain across the frame. The background consists of a mottled, textured blue surface that complements the cool colour palette of the lighting.
