About

This stark vertical photograph features a standard paper shooting target pinned against a weathered corrugated metal wall. The target displays a solid black human silhouette marked with concentric scoring rings and multiple bullet holes scattered across the torso and head region. Printed text and a crest are visible in the upper right corner of the paper sheet. The composition is centered, presenting a straightforward and documentary-style record of the target. Natural ambient lighting highlights the rough texture of the metal background and the torn paper edges.
