Jason Paige Smith, Photographer, Boston

Description

An elderly man is seated outdoors on a wooden dock, wearing bright orange waterproof bib trousers and a blue and orange jacket. He holds a heavy coil of rope in his hands while more coiled ropes rest on the weathered wooden planks around him. Piles of yellow lobster traps stand to his left, and a coastal house and an overcast sky form the background. The lighting is diffused and natural, capturing the textured surfaces of the ropes, wood, and gear. The portrait was photographed in Boston by Jason Paige Smith.
