Chrysler Building Spire Zoom Color, Abstract Photography Pastel Color

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
The Chrysler Building Spire is zoomed by Photographer Mitchell Funk. The concept is to take one of the most photographed icons in the world and present it visually different but still recognizable. To get this line of sight, Funk positioned himself on the roof of an adjacent skyscraper so that the viewer is at eye level with the subject. There are two light sources, one from within and one from without. The soft pastel colors of the sunset are echoed in the spire Art Deco widows.
The overall result is a "moving" image that is a combination of representation and abstraction.
