River, Connecticut 2015

"River, Connecticut" (2015) by Finnish photographer Elina Brotherus is a photograph featuring a lone figure wading in a shallow river. The subject's back is turned to the viewer, emphasizing a sense of isolation and introspection. The composition's focus on the figure's legs submerged in the water suggests a connection to nature and a sense of vulnerability. The serene setting, with its smooth water and rocky riverbed, creates a tranquil and contemplative atmosphere. Brotherus's work often explores themes of identity, self-portraiture, and the relationship between the individual and their surroundings.
