Rich Gilligan, Photographer, New York

Description

This vertical editorial photograph by Rich Gilligan captures a black man in his 20s or 30s captured mid-stride as he leaps across a small stream on a dirt trail. He wears a dark quilted vest over a blue long-sleeve athletic top, paired with matching blue running shorts and trail running shoes with white socks. The setting is a dense pine forest with tall vertical tree trunks blurring slightly in the background to emphasize the dynamic movement. The natural ambient lighting filters through the canopy, creating a candid, grounded atmosphere on the forest floor strewn with rocks and low ferns.
