Turkina Faso, Photographer, London

Description

This monochrome photograph by Turkina Faso captures a pregnant woman floating submerged underwater. Natural light filters through the rippling surface, creating intense reflections and high-contrast highlights around her silhouette. The composition employs a vertical framing with dramatic tonal gradations ranging from deep blacks to brilliant whites. The water's movement produces textured distortions across the frame, emphasizing the ethereal quality of the scene. The subject is captured mid-float in a serene and weightless posture.
