Doug Menuez, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome black and white photograph by Doug Menuez captures a expansive sandy beach populated by numerous figures enjoying surfing activities. In the foreground, one person lies on a surfboard while another prepares to stand on a board near the shallow water. Further up the shore, multiple silhouettes of surfers carry boards and wander along the wet sand. The composition uses a high vantage point, stretching the sandy coastline deep into the frame with soft natural light reflecting off the wet tidal areas.
