New York photographer of French-Venezuelan origin Mathieu Asselin (Mathieu Asselin) was on Coney Island one frosty day. He experimented with lighting on the ocean. By chance, he had the opportunity to do a small photo shoot of winter swimmers. As a result, Mathieu was imbued with the strength of character of these people and repeatedly came to the coast several times to capture portraits.
