Manhattan Rooftop Abstraction - Urban Landscape Color Photography
-
Description
A Manhattan rooftop looks as beautiful as an abstract painting filled with lush colors punctuated by a single sitting figure in hyper-light. New York City rooftops are typically dark and unattractive because developers put money into street-level lobbies and landscaping. Photographer Mitchell Funk's colorful photograph explores the tension between the unknown and the unexpected.
