Shayan Asgharnia, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white macro photograph presents an extreme close-up of a manatee's snout, captured by photographer Shayan Asgharnia. The tight framing focuses directly on the intricate texture of the leathery skin and the dense scattering of short, wiry facial bristles surrounding the mouth. High-contrast monochrome lighting accentuates every wrinkle and tactile detail across the surface. The composition creates an intimate and detailed study of marine mammal anatomy against a dark, neutral background.
