David Martinez, Photographer, New York

Description

A portrait of a Black woman with long dark braided hair styled in a ponytail, captured outdoors against a wide, bright salt flat horizon. She wears reflective aviator sunglasses with a warm golden lens tint, catching the bright sun flare behind her shoulder. Her dark sleeveless top features graphic white text and racing-inspired insignia on the back. She wears a thin gold-toned arm cuff on her upper bicep and small hoop earrings, looking back over her shoulder with a relaxed expression. The natural backlighting creates a bright halo effect around her profile and hair against the pale, hazy background.
