An uncanny juxtaposition of sleek design. The bold geometric forms of the Chrysler Building Spire are set against the equally sleek lines of a contemporary passenger jet. The building pushes vertically while the jet thrusts horizontally. Both spire and jet are cloaked in shiny metal which Mitchell Funk' exploits with his signature style of potent lighting. This photograph masterfully demonstrates Funk's uniquely deep knowledge of color, shape, and design in contemporary color photography. The uploaded video on 1stDibs is coming up a bit light.
