Subject stands relaxed with weight on one leg, torso slightly angled toward camera left, head gently tilted downward, chin lowered, eyes hidden behind dark rectangular sunglasses, gaze directed toward his hands.Facial expression calm, serious, introspective, neutral lips, light stubble and short neatly styled hair.
