Emily Maye, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white sports portrait features a female water polo player preparing at the edge of a swimming pool. She wears a white swim cap with the number ten prominently displayed and a dark athletic swimsuit. Water droplets speckle her skin and clothing, and an Olympic rings tattoo is visible on her forearm. The image uses a grainy film aesthetic and high-contrast monochrome lighting, emphasising the focused expression and physical exertion. Photographer Emily Maye captures this intimate, candid sports moment from a dynamic side angle.
