Shadow Shot Sunday

In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary.  ~Aaron Rose

We cannot hold a torch to light another path without brightening our own.  ~Ben Sweetland

Dare to reach out your hand into the darkness, to pull another hand into the light.  ~Norman B. Rice

You discovered some great shadows Sandra. I love the first one with the lacy shadow on the fence. I also like the optical illusion created by the lower shadow, at a quick glance it almost looks like a short fence with a corner. Very inspiring quotes today.

The light and shadows play nicely together! Also enjoyed the info you shared about F stops and shutter speeds.

My favorite is the first, it looks like a corner, but it's NOT! A shadow trick of the eye.

Lovely shadows and quotes, the first quote is my favourite I think.

Ann said...

You made me think of something today.
Remember hearing "Only the shadow knows" - I think that we have a shadow within us sometimes too. We know what we want to do and what we should do. Sometimes we have to take the shadow side - look at it - and do something with it - do you understand???lol

Great shots! It is just so bright and sunny where you live. Shadows shots here where I live aren't that appealing right now. They just look dull but yours are beautiful!

Reena said...

Great shadows and love those green leaves.

Rose said...

I really like all of your shadow shots. Very well done.

Such pretty shadows! November is generally a gloomy month in Ontario (lots of overcast skies as air passes over the still unfrozen Great Lakes) so I get excited when I see sun and shadows. :)

The tree has a lot of character. Shade just adds more to it.
