Description
This striking monochrome close-up portrait by photographer Erik Tanner focuses closely on a woman's face. Her eyes, accentuated by heavy dark eyeliner and mascara, gaze intently off to the side with distinct catchlights reflected in her irises. Her hand is raised to her face, with her fingers resting gently near her nose and mouth. The lighting is high-contrast and dramatic, casting deep shadows that sculpt her facial features and highlight the texture of her skin and bangs. The dark, moody tones and tight framing create an intimate and intense visual focus.
