Untitled Portraits — Anatolia — Black / 03Two Pups, Many Sheep
Black and white portrait of a man in a beanie holding two puppies above a flock of sheep, with snow and a wide plain behind — fine art portrait by Sefa Yamak, Anatolia series.

Anatolia, Turkey · 2017

Two Pups, Many Sheep

He held the two pups up to me, one in each arm, and the sheep pressed in around his legs.

This story imagines, it does not document. It is what the photograph made me feel.

The sky was low and heavy with cloud and the plain ran far behind him under snow. He did not pose the dogs, he just showed them. That was the whole picture.
