KUNCHOK | Exuberance


Having photographed Kunchok (कुनचोक) for a couple of hours on the streets of Soho, I learned that her name is Tibetan/Nepali for "goddess". A New York University student, she posed for my cameras on a brisk and cold day in early October.

Here are some of her photographs:














I've added this final photograph because it was processed using the new ON1 Raw 2023 software, which includes an AI tool that allows users to click on the background (separating the central figure) and apply whatever effect wanted. The same tool also allowed me to click on Kunchok and make her "pop" out of the image....all with a single click.

For large sized photographs of Kunchok:
