Richard Phibbs, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking monochrome portrait features a middle-aged man with a full beard and short hair, gazing thoughtfully to the side. He is dressed in a casual crew-neck t-shirt with rolled sleeves, revealing a wristwatch on his arm. The dramatic, low-key lighting casts deep shadows across the scene, accentuating the rich textures of his beard and skin. Set against a dark, textured backdrop, the composition creates an intimate and contemplative mood. The photograph was captured by Richard Phibbs in New York.
