A sharp, moody photo captured with a Leica M10-R at f/1.4, showcasing Ruth Bradley, 35, mid-stride in a rain-soaked alley, her blonde hair plastered to her face, wearing a oversized black trench coat and combat boots. Her piercing blue eyes lock onto the lens, contrasting with the neon-drenched brick walls dripping with water. The background glows with flickering streetlights and a ghostly reflection of a broken billboard. Her posture is tense, one hand gripping a leather strap, the other clutching a faded map. The scene feels illicit, charged with the humidity of a storm-lashed city at midnight.
