Marc De Groot, Paris

Description

This striking portrait captured in Paris by photographer Marc De Groot features a close-up of a man wearing thick dark eyeglasses and a patterned collared shirt. Wisps of white smoke curl and weave dynamically around his face, partially obscuring his features and threading through the frames of his glasses. The composition focuses intimately on the subject's expression and the ephemeral textures of the smoke against his skin and hair. The lighting highlights the contours of his face and the delicate patterns within the drifting smoke. The neutral background keeps the emphasis entirely on the dramatic interplay between the subject, his eyewear, and the smoke.
