Ms Greenberg is the opposite of the “National Geographic” type photographer, the NG photographer being the one who endures unfathomable hardships in order to capture iconic images of animals in the wild. (See the NG documentary on the first films of the extremely rare Siberian Snow Leopard.) Ms Greenberg hires animals, as she herself says, like any other prop or model. She pays then by the hour to sit in her constructed environments and then she deftly adds to the images certain enhancements via Photoshop. The results are hyper images to behold. There are various schools of images on her website; commissions and portraits amongst them, but it is her work with animals that bring the exotic and foreign into an intense focus. Link.
