Description
This striking monochrome portrait by photographer Sylve Colless features a close-up composition focusing on a woman with wet, glistening skin and damp hair. Her hand gently rests near her shoulder, where the intricate shadow of a delicate dried plant or stem is cast across her skin. The high-contrast black and white lighting creates deep shadows and stark highlights, emphasizing tactile textures like water droplets and skin grain. The intimate framing captures a quiet, contemplative mood with strong graphic elements.
