Profile Portrait - B&W Minimal

In stark black and white, the profile of a man's head and shoulders is captured with his head tilted upward, eyes gazing toward an unseen height. Sharp contrasts carve out his strong jawline and the contour of his nose, while the soft gradation of shadows adds depth to his features. The scene is minimalistic, with a smooth, darkened backdrop that foregrounds the texture of his skin and the subtle weave of his hair. The composition is tight, focusing on the elegance of the upward tilt and the quiet strength in his posture, illuminated with gentle but firm lighting that sculpts the form realistically. The monochrome palette intensifies the mood, blending shadow and light into a crisp study of profile and poise.
