Dave Hill, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

An outdoor urban portrait captures a young woman bending backward in the middle of a city street under a clear blue sky. She wears a dark bikini top with thin straps and light-colored white trousers. Her arms are raised gracefully around her head while she gazes directly downward toward the camera. Tall yellow traffic signal posts flank the composition against a background of high-rise buildings and street pavement. The natural daylight creates sharp shadows and highlights the contours of the scene.
