Omar Cruz, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

A striking photograph by Omar Cruz captures a first-person perspective as a hand reaches out to hold the hand of a woman dressed in a traditional red gown. The woman stands on an elevated stone terrace, her back to the viewer, holding an open red hand fan aloft against a sweeping panorama of a hillside town. A bright orange sun sets behind rolling hills under a dramatic cloud-filled sky glowing with warm amber and blue tones. The woman wears a dark headscarf adorned with red polka dots and a red rose tucked into her braided hair. The rich textures of her knitted sleeves and layered skirt contrast with the rustic stone wall of the overlook.
