Dorothy Sing Zhang, Photographer, London

Description

A focused young woman wearing a red plaid short-sleeve shirt concentrates on pulling a wooden block from a stacked tower in front of her. The lighting is dramatic and directional, casting soft highlights across her face and hands while dropping the background into deep shadow. Her expression is one of careful calculation as her hand reaches toward the wooden blocks. The composition highlights the tension of the moment with a shallow depth of field. This portrait photograph was captured in London by photographer Dorothy Sing Zhang.
