“Striped by shadow” makes a fascinating pattern on the floor, and the shadow on the churchdoor is intriguing. Wonderful examples. I recognised the thing on your bathroom window from the “glass” post.

Thanks, Paula. I now admit, I intentionally hang things on windows and put things on sills to make shadows … and sometimes rainbows. Is that cheating?

Glad to hear that. I do set ups. i don’t have access to a studio anymore and a gave away my lights to someone who has somewhere to use them, but within the limits of window light, I like to do little “sets” … and even when I’m just shooting around the house, some habits die hard. I’m always moving stuff around for a better aesthetic effect. Giving all my “secrets” away.

Shadows are so essential to give depth to a work of art. Beautiful photos Marilyn.

Thank you. We don’t get a lot of sun once the leaves come out on the trees, so most of my shadow pictures are taken in early spring, winter, and late fall. Or Arizona 🙂

Very nice pics, loved the one on the floor, at first glance it seemed the wood was carved then I realized it is the shadows of the wooden bars. Excellent…

It’s the railing on the deck. Depending on the time of day, it makes a variety of patterns. You can tell it’s about noon when there are NO shadows. The railing is almost a clock 🙂 Thank you !

Thank you for liking them. I take a lot of shadow pictures and I have a lot of things hanging on the windows or sitting the the sills that form interesting shadows. Depending on the time of day, they look very different and sometimes, pretty funny 🙂

I wished I could have taken a pic of my cat. The way he lay his ears momentarily outward, paws in the air, looked like a creature from outer space and the twilight zone, incredibly arrestin b I gotta say

Shadows and reflections are the meat and potatoes of photography 🙂 That, and autumn leaves, fresh snow, and our pets.
