Fearless
Located in front of the Charging Bull in the Financial District. Installed in 2017 as what was supposed to be a temporary ad to show gender diversity but successive petitions have succeeded to keep her in place.
As one would expect, this is a very popular tourist attraction so I had to be in place very early to get the shot before she became overrun with camera phones and selfie sticks! This required a high ISO to capture the available light as it was a hand-held shot.
The composition is focussed on the girl but I kept enough of the bull visible to comprehend what it is, which should imply meaning to the girl's stance.
