Description

This stark black and white film photograph, captured by photographer Nick Laham, presents an unusual overhead perspective looking down at a person's wet hair. The subject's dark, textured strands glisten with moisture, dominating the foreground of the composition. Further back in the frame, slightly out of focus, the person's feet rest against a rough, textured ground outdoors. The analog capture features visible film grain and high contrast lighting, creating deep shadows and bright highlights that emphasize the tactile qualities of the wet hair and the rough terrain. The heavy vignette and sprocket holes along the borders complete the traditional film aesthetic.
