This portrait of my friend Giovanni, an avid surfer and free diver, was taken in front of an abandoned building with mountains towering in the background. I was drawn to the playful contrast between his aquatic world and the dry, rugged landscape. The scene carries a quiet humor while capturing a timeless essence, blending curiosity, adventure, and a sense of the unexpected.
