Gary Copeland, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

A man lies flat on his back on a polished wooden basketball court, his arms raised upward with fists clenched. He wears a bright red sleeveless tank top featuring a small dark logo on the chest. Both of his arms are heavily covered in detailed dark tattoos extending up to his shoulders. The camera angle is positioned from directly above, capturing him against the parallel wooden floorboards and black court boundary lines. The lighting is direct and creates a high-contrast flash effect with warm golden tones across the wood grain. This portrait was captured in Los Angeles by photographer Gary Copeland.
