About

Two Black surfers stand shoulder to shoulder on a sunny beach, smiling broadly at the camera. The man on the left has short hair and wears a thin silver chain necklace, while the man on the right has dreadlocks and visible tattoos on his chest and arm. Both are shirtless with wetsuit bottoms pulled down around their waists. A tall surfboard with an orange edge stands prominently in the left foreground against a clear blue sky and distant ocean waves. The photograph is shot in daylight with natural lighting, captured by photographer Gabriella Angotti-Jones in Los Angeles.
