Shayan Asgharnia, Photographer, New York

Description

This stark black and white macro photograph by New York-based photographer Shayan Asgharnia captures an extreme close-up of a snake's head. The composition focuses tightly on the intricate texture of the overlapping scales and the dark, reflective eye. Shot against a clean, bright white background, the monochromatic lighting emphasizes the fine tactile details of the reptile's skin. The vertical orientation enhances the narrow, sculptural form of the subject.
