Description

A sweat-covered athlete in profile drinks water from a clear plastic bottle. The subject wears a red sleeveless sports jersey, with beads of perspiration visible across the skin and shoulders. The low-key lighting emphasizes the contours of the arm, shoulder, and jawline against a dark, indistinct background. The composition captures a candid moment of athletic recovery in an indoor setting. Photographed by Emily Maye.
