Golden Mist at the Fountain - Impressionist Girl Relaxing like Georges Seurat

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
A girl is shrouded in a golden mist of shimming water droplets emanating from a fountain. This image looks like something post-impressionist Georges Seurat would paint, but in reality, it's a straight photograph taken without a lick of manipulation. It leaves the viewer awestruck. Veteran Street Photographer Mitchell Funk was at the right place and time. The light was perfect and the result is a dreamy pointillist-like photo that celebrates the beauty of being.
