Theo Wenner, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white photograph by Theo Wenner captures a crew team rowing together on a river in New York. Five athletes are visible in the long racing shell, each holding an oar and captured mid-stroke in a side profile composition. The lighting highlights the muscular definition of the rowers and the ripples on the water's surface. Several team members wear caps and sunglasses while leaning into the physical effort of the training session. The monochromatic palette and film grain texture lend a classic documentary feel to the athletic scene.
