Julia Stotz, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This vertical photograph captured by Los Angeles-based photographer Julia Stotz presents a close-up perspective of a hand holding a clear plastic cup filled with an iced coffee beverage. The beverage features a layered appearance with dark coffee and pale foam under a translucent lid, and a prominent circular logo sticker is affixed to the side. The hand wears a metallic ring and a thin bracelet, with the edge of a denim sleeve visible at the lower left. The subject is held against the background of a weathered, textured stone fountain basin filled with shimmering water. Sunlight creates intense starburst reflections on the water surface alongside several scattered pink flower petals floating near the rim and casting soft shadows. The warm, direct lighting enhances the natural textures of the stone and the sparkling water.
