Mexican peripheral western fashion editorial at the edge of a massive housing development, surreal but completely grounded in contemporary Mexican life, extreme low-angle full-body composition photographed with a 2005 Sony Cyber-shot digital compact camera, built-in flash and wide 35mm equivalent lens. A mestizo Mexican femme model with mexican braids with bangs and soft smoky pink eye makeup wears a contemporary structured cobalt-blue designer-inspired coat over a white printed red t-shirt, orange cooper high cowboy boots, oversized imitation-gold earrings and a tiny translucent blue plastic handbag, sitting confidently on a concrete road barrier with one leg raised toward the camera and one hand resting casually behind the head, a giant metallic silver inflatable butterfly positioned behind the body like an absurd fashion prop, unfinished apartment blocks, concrete streets, utility poles, dry grass, distant mountains and a pale polluted sky surrounding the subject, harsh direct flash flattening the environment and producing bright reflections on the inflatable butterfly, exaggerated arrogant pose and completely serious expression, Mexican pop-culture fashion photography from the early 2000s mixed with contemporary luxury editorial styling, saturated consumer-digital colors, electronic noise, strong optical vignette, blown highlights, deep shadows, imperfect white balance and unmistakable cheap early-digital-camera texture.
