Summary
High-contrast black-and-white portrait with one sharp side of the face and the other dissolved in blur.
Visual description
Monochrome portrait keeps the right side of a man's face razor sharp while the left dissolves into blur and black. Directional light creates deep shadow falloff.
Key takeaway
Split-focus blur adds psychological weight to an otherwise simple headshot.
Reuse notes
Film posters, actor profiles, or editorial portraits needing cinematic tension.
