Westward wake-up stretch
I cannot find them at noon
Some days they sleep in
I cannot find them at noon
Some days they sleep in
There is a special fragility about the shadows in a November woods. Shifting and changing in their positioning and size throughout the day; somedays they are not even there at all!
My appreciative thanks to Tracey, at Hey Harriet, the host of Shadow Shot Sunday for this interesting idea; for more information on this shadow meme,please click on the icon in the side bar.
Those are some very nice shadows. Shadows and water reflections are so interesting for the added element of design the give to a photo. I was photographing ducks and geese the other day and found myself more interested in their reflections then their reality. I think shadows can be the same way. They become a separate image of their own.

ReplyDeleteSometimes shadows and reflections play some sort of mind tricks on me and I get them confused momentarily when looking through my photo archives for them, I'll select a photo and think, "that would be nice", then I'll realize its a reflection, not a shadow! I am starting to notice that I don't take enough shadow shots. Shadows really give more room for your imagination to enlarge upon a picture :-)
