Portrait of Green Eyed Sci-Fi Star Trek Girl in Golden Light in Times Square

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
Street Photographer Mitchell Funk captures a green-eyed Sci-Fi Star Trek girl illuminated by intense golden light.
In most portrait photography, the subject collaborates with the photographer. In this work, it appears the subject is posing, but it is just a moment caught in time. Funk's hyper-lighting works hand-in-hand with the subject outer worldly presence. There is a synthesis of technique and subject matter. The background of Times Square neon signs is thrown out of focus, making the colorful background look almost as extraterrestrial as the female Vulcan in the foreground.
This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, numbered 3/15, dated and titled and lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper
