Rob Palmer, Photographer, Sydney

Description

This monochrome editorial photograph captured by Rob Palmer in Sydney depicts a fishmonger standing inside a commercial kitchen or processing space. The male subject wears a dark polo shirt, a protective apron, and a black face mask while gripping a very large whole tuna fish positioned in the foreground. Stacks of grey plastic crates line the left side of the frame against a textured stainless steel wall. The lighting is direct and dramatic, emphasizing the metallic textures of the environment and the stark contrast of the black and white grading.
