Description
This black and white photograph by Chicago-based photographer John Blais captures a coastal scene along a weathered concrete sea wall. Several young men are positioned across the structure, with one figure caught mid-air performing a dive into the water. The composition is rendered in high-contrast monochrome, emphasising the textures of the concrete and the movement of the individuals. The stark lighting creates deep shadows and sharp highlights across the figures and the surrounding stone. The overall atmosphere is candid and observational, capturing a moment of youthful activity by the open water.
