Description

A ballerina with long brown hair is seated on a weathered wooden dock, leaning back onto her hands with her knees bent and pointed upwards. She wears a form-fitting black leotard and satin pointe shoes with ribbons tied around her ankles. The background features a calm expanse of water stretching towards a distant shoreline under an overcast sky. The lighting is soft and natural, emphasizing the textures of the wooden planks and the dancer's pose. Patrick Fraser captured this portrait outdoors.
