The Shadow Legionnaire is a long-running and successful racer. She may not look like much, but she's got some power under the hood. She excels on the straightaways.
The small images are a little more visible when viewed large.
Based on Tim's Cave Racer design.
"Shadows"
Near Salton Sea, California, USA
1405-4-7482 [2:1]
Sunset captured in the desert of southern California, near the Salton Sea. The overcast distant horizon showed little promise for anything spectacular, but then suddenly the light glimmered above the clouds, casting shadows all around the hills and mountains, creating incredible silhouettes!
First idea that came to mind for the potd was to get a shadow of the wheels on my bike. My idea didn't really translate to the camera. This one was my favorite of the bunch.
Shadow cast by Charles and Ray Eames's "Leg Splint" (1942), collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Shadows & light reflected onto paving from buildings near Broadgate Circle. I was lucky to find this for 7DOS only a day or two after the list of new themes had been posted.
Noticed this amazing shadow design as the sun was setting on one of my mother's neighbors' house as I was walking by. All the trees & branches reflected onto the windows & wall creating quite the work of art! (Best viewed large)
I used 2 Cameron Translite 4.0, 400 watt battery powered strobe equipped with 12 x 36 stip boxes, one on camera left and one behind the dancer on camera left
The camera is a Nikon D3x set with a Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VRII lens. Pocket Wizard Plus II transceivers.

On 12th Oct. 1917 846 young New Zealand soldiers were killed in the first 4 hours of the Battle of Passchendaele. Many soldiers did not die at the hands of the enemy but actually drowned in the mud of the waterlogged Ypres Salient.
Helen Pollock, the New Zealand sculptor, was inspired to make the commemorative sculpture by the experiences of her father and other Kiwi soldiers at the Third Battle of Ypres - known simply as Passchendaele.
Follow the link to see the film made by Helen Pollock about the making and significance of this piece of work.
This is a landscape taken around 10km north of my last post. on the road between Vesoul and Dijon.
Wonderful blue skies coupled with beautiful bright sunshine and fairly strong winds and with lots of white clouds quickly moving across the skies, i just watched as the shadows danced across the fields, and finally took this photo.

Shadow, my favourite dog (don't tell Buddy).
She's not as handsome, she's not as big. She's not as young.
That's why I love her - she needs me as much as I need her!
Day 21
I ordered myself a not so little christmas present last week and it showed up on my doorstep this evening. I got a great deal on this 5'x3.5' six in one collapsable reflector. It came in a box that was humorously large and it was quite exciting to snap open for the first time. I plan on using this big ol reflector quite a bit in the future, good purchase.

The ideal may have been to have the shadow pointing towards the distant tree but at this time of year that is impossible! :-)
I have disabled comments on new uploads for the time being. I wasn't sure how much detail to go into but a few of you have been asking after the previous uploads so please read below if you have time....................
Do you ever find yourself writing very similar comments from one image to the next? (Oh, you can't answer that because you can't leave a comment here! LOL!) I usually try to say something constructive and/or original but so often I find myself saying the same sort of things time and time again. I see a similar pattern anywhere I look on Flickr, so I don't believe I am alone here! :-) There is only a limited number of ways that one can say things like "great composition", “so creative!”, "lovely tones", "beautiful bokeh" etc etc! It can all get a bit 'stale', so in the end I sometimes don't leave any comment at all! I'm not into commenting just for the sake of it.
As far as I know it doesn't say anywhere that commenting is mandatory (unless you post in some groups where it is!) so I've decided to take a total break from comments! Both giving and receiving!
I've recently been asking myself why do we all keep on in this way in any case? Maybe partly because us humans are creatures of habit? I don't really have an answer. Obviously there are some people on this site who are simply fishing for comments and faves on their own work but that's just pathetic! Get a life! :)
I'm not here to accumulate comments and awards etc. At the end of the day, what difference does it make whether a photo gets hundreds of comments & faves or just a handful of each? It might become more “interesting” but in the long term getting a load of comments on Flickr doesn't make my life any better or any more complete! So I think I can live without them for a while. :-)
I'll still be around. And if I add something as a fave that's how you will know that I really do like it! :-)
SHADOW TANGO
We were staying over at a friends house, I went outside for a breath of fresh air, before bed, I love the night-air, the silence, the reflecting lights... I turned around and saw this on the wall... a couple dancing, flicking the legs, well my camera is never far away, my tripod was in the boot of the car, I do always find something to 'steady', plus, again, focus, take a DEEEEEP breath, hold it, click, breathe out... DONE
Good night, M, (*_*)
Shadow and reflection of the couples.
