Washington Square Park, NY

A black and white photo of a shirtless man lying on his back, holding a pen and writing on a notepad resting on his raised knee. He has a tattoo of a bird on his chest and is wearing dark pants. The angle of the shot is from above his head, providing a view of his activity and a glimpse of his facial profile.
