Description

A black and white close-up portrait shows an Asian female swimmer in a pool. She is wearing a white swim cap with black goggles pushed up onto her forehead. The woman's face is framed by the water, which comes up to her chest. She is smiling, showing her teeth. The water is rippled and reflects her image. The image has a monochromatic colour palette, typical of black and white photography. The swimmer appears relaxed and at ease in the water.
