Monochromatic close-up study of a fixed-gear bicycle with wrapped drop bars held by a rider in dark textured knitwear. The composition emphasizes worn leather and cloth handlebar tape, weathered metal frame, and the intimate tactile relationship between hands and machine. Shot in stark black and white with high contrast, emphasising texture and detail—aged wrapping, muscle definition, the geometry of the bike's structure. The mood is gritty, urban, and intimate; the lighting is natural and unforgiving, casting subtle shadows across the worn grip surfaces.
