Description

A black and white close-up shows a woman wearing a mask looking directly into the camera. She wears a white tank top, and the shiny black mask covers the upper half of her face. A hint of a small star tattoo appears on her hand. She is holding her hand over a bowl of white liquid, seemingly milk. Droplets of the liquid fall from her fingertips back into the bowl. The dark background and shallow depth of field put the focus on the woman's face and the milk.
