Rafael Pavarotti, Photographer, New York

Description

A close-up portrait shows a single, dark-skinned Black male partially obscured by a pink flower held to his left eye. He wears a dark grey jacket over a white top. The background is a textured, solid yellow. The lighting is soft and diffused, highlighting the textures of his skin and clothing. The image is shot with a shallow depth of field, drawing focus to the subject's face and the flower. Post-production colour grading gives the image a warm tone.
