Radka Leitmeritz, Photographer, New York

Description

A female tennis player is captured in profile holding a tennis racket with a white-wrapped handle, wearing a dark green athletic top and a pink visor over her blonde hair styled in a braid. The composition features strong, harsh directional lighting that casts the shadow of the racket strings across her arm and shoulder. In the lower left corner, a partial green sign with a gold crown emblem and visible letters is present against a dark background. The high-contrast lighting creates dramatic highlights and deep shadows across the subject's face and athletic attire. This striking portrait was photographed in New York by Radka Leitmeritz.
