Description

A joyful African-American man is sitting on a green metal bench while hugging his dog. The man is wearing a denim jacket, dark pants, a black hat, and a beaded bracelet. The dog is a brindle French Bulldog with a red leash. They are on a rooftop with a metal railing. In the background are brick buildings, a blue sky, and potted plants. The light is warm and soft, suggesting it is late afternoon or early evening. The photograph is shot from eye level.
