Mike Carreiro, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This photograph by Mike Carreiro captures a surfer standing on a sandy beach holding a surfboard, with the bright sunlight casting a long, distinct shadow of both the person and the board onto the sand. The subject wears light-coloured shorts and holds a towel draped over the shoulder. The composition focuses on the lower half of the surfer and the dramatic shadow play against the textured coastal sand. The natural outdoor lighting highlights the grain of the sand and the organic tones of the beach environment.
