This black-and-white photo shows a person sitting on a bench, holding a small glass. They’re wearing a big hat, a coat, and a bow tie. Behind them, a few other people sit in the distance, with buildings and a waterfront visible. The photo looks like it was taken quickly, with a grainy, slightly blurry feel. The person’s face is lit up, while the background stays dark. Next, check out *chiaroscuro* to see how light and shadow create drama in photos.
