Description

This black-and-white editorial image captured by photographer Paul Scala for Love Want's The Acceptance Issue features a shirtless man lifting a heavy rock above his head with both hands. The subject stands centrally against a clean white seamless background, wearing dark trousers and a simple chain necklace. The lighting is direct and stark, emphasizing sculptural muscle definition and tone. Set design by Felix Jerome Grech and make-up by Gillian Campbell complete the production credits for this striking studio portrait.
