Black and white portrait of a person holding a large paper shooting target featuring a silhouette and round sunglasses.

Michael Muller, Photographer, Los Angeles

About

This black-and-white portrait features a person with short dark hair and headphones resting around their neck peeking out from behind a large paper shooting target. The crumpled paper target has a human silhouette outline, upon which round sunglasses are placed over the eye area. Below the glasses, concentric scoring rings and numerous bullet holes fill the lower section of the target. Additional smaller printed target diagrams are visible on the upper left and right sides of the paper sheet. The high-contrast monochromatic grading emphasizes texture in the paper and the sharp gaze of the subject.
