Long-lens view from across the street of a 67-year-old man alone, a futuristic cyclist gripping the handlebars of a sleek hover-bike, his face set in a grimace of fierce determination as he grits his teeth. He has fair skin with cool undertones, a tall lanky frame, and a round face with full cheeks, amber eyes, and sharply angled eyebrows. Several small piercings line one ear, and his scalp is smooth and shaved, dark blonde in color, catching the light, while a grey beard frames his jaw. He wears a neon running vest, black running shorts, and trail shoes. The hover-bike features glowing magnetic wheels and leaves a faint blue light trail behind it as it speeds along a sky-bridge. In the background, tall towers are wrapped in vertical gardens where glowing purple flowers bloom, and flying vehicles drift through the air. A holographic advertisement floats above the bridge. The 85mm lens compresses the background layers, softening the distant towers and vehicles, while passers-by in the foreground are blurred into streaks of color. The main figure is positioned on a strong diagonal from one corner of the frame to the opposite one. Hard midday sun strikes straight from overhead, casting short black shadows and creating bright highlights on the translucent helmet and the wet-looking surfaces of the bridge. Shot on a 35mm film camera with high ISO grain, sharp focus on the cyclist’s face and the blue light trail, and a cool color cast that emphasizes the futuristic atmosphere.
