Description

A young adult Black man stands on a city street holding a skateboard, posing for a portrait. He is wearing a light brown hoodie with black lettering, dark cargo pants, and grey sneakers. The man has a hoodie up with the drawstrings hanging down. He has a neutral facial expression. The skateboard is worn and has grip tape on the top. Behind him is a city street with people walking and buildings. An elevated structure is partially visible above and to the left. The light is soft and diffused, suggesting an overcast day. The composition is a medium shot, capturing the subject from head to toe. The colors are muted.
