Description
This black and white overhead photograph by photographer and filmmaker Maggie Shannon presents an intimate, close-up perspective of a person lying down. A gloved hand rests gently upon the subject's head, near the parting of dark hair and the forehead. The composition is tightly framed against a dark, textured fabric background, creating high contrast and a stark, observational quality. Strong directional lighting casts crisp shadows across the scene, accentuating the textures of the hair, skin, and fabric. The monochrome palette emphasizes form and detail in this striking photographic work.
