This is from a story still in the works. As some of you might know, on the side Anastasia does the occasional long range assassination jobs for people who really need to be disappeared (Cartel heads, Arms dealers etc). She will not take on a hit if she disagrees from a moral standpoint, so you couldn't pay her to kill a business competitor for example...unless that competitor was doing some pretty foul stuff (it's case by case, hard to define!).

In this particular instance, getting inside the cordon isn't an option. So she's scaled a building still under construction and is lining up a shot from about 3km away (spoiler alert, the scaffold actually collapses and she winds up taking the shot hanging by her legs upside down). Before anyone says anything, the shotgun shells are actually for the pistol she has. The rifle is not a shotgun, but a double-rifle of the 20mm calibre.

It was a bit tricky finding suitable refs for the city background, tried to go for a mix between a kind of UAE and Chinese skyscraper theme, so no, that's not the Burj Khalifa in the background :D
