Thistle Brown, Photographer, New York

Description

An underwater portrait photograph captured by Thistle Brown shows a black woman submerged in a crystal-clear swimming pool. She wears dark black sunglasses and a mustard-yellow tank top, with her arms raised and hands open near her head. Natural sunlight filters through the water surface, casting rippling caustic light patterns across her skin and clothing. Fine air bubbles float upward around her afro-textured hair and face, while the blue tiled bottom of the pool is faintly visible in the background.
