Description
A close-up, black and white portrait captures a young adult female with dark, curly hair. She is looking over her shoulder, her gaze directed at the viewer. Fine specks of dark material are visible on her face, shoulder and back, creating a textured effect. The lighting is soft, enhancing the contrast and shadows on her skin. The background fades into darkness, drawing focus to the woman. Her bare shoulder and partial upper back are visible, adding a sense of vulnerability to the portrait. The image is shot with a shallow depth of field.
