The Man and The Rose

70mm · f/11.0 · 1/125s · ISO 100

From my ongoing "Masculinity" photo series. I have always found that old model of what man should be is too restricted and often harmful. It inspired me to start this series and share my thoughts as images. For this series I also tried hand painting. I painted the background to an old cabinet door and photographed it to a texture used as a background.

Model: Jake Mattila

Nice lighting. The subject does nothing for me but that, of course, is subjective.
