Description
This dramatic close-up portrait features a young man with a single tear visible on his left cheek. The composition employs high-contrast, low-key lighting that casts deep shadows across the lower face while sharply illuminating the bridge of the nose, eyes, and brow bone. The lighting accentuates the sharp contours of his cheekbones and jawline against a solid dark background. His striking blue eyes gaze upward and slightly away from the camera lens. The portrait is photographed by Zeynep Özkanca in Istanbul.
