my friend jenni wanted me to take some black and white pictures of her puppy shadow for her room. this one was one of my favourites.
Taken from the balcony at the Metropole Hotel - photographing these lengthening shadows was entirely hypnotic.
People walking from the East were dragging their shadows, whilst those walking from the West were pushing them forward ... as I said ... hypnotic!

How do creative professionals who are paid to think outside the box express themselves? At Corey McPherson Nash, we do it inside the box—a shallow, glass-topped, wooden box, to be exact.
14 years ago we resuscitated the quaint craft of shadow-box making and turned it into a company ritual. The rules are simple: Don't go outside the box, and don't put anything living inside the box. But the object is ambitious: to provide a hands-on tutorial in Corey McPherson Nash's organizational culture. "Our basic operating principle is to define broad goals, supply a little structure, and then give people the freedom to do creative work."
With the shadow boxes, that principle has produced wildly diverse visions. Among the completed boxes: a vivid frightscape, complete with a crank for animating dancing-devil cutouts; a meditation on "what it could have been," featuring a loose marble and a list of design possibilities; and Tom Corey's own taxonomy of "bad seeds."
Upset with never being in the limelight, my shadow pulls a traditional Sicilian gesture at me. Stupid thing.
Puppet child Cendhikia Ishmatuka Srihascryasmoro (7) performs with a traditional shadow puppet in Solo. Indonesia's shadow puppetry performances are steeped in tradition, Shadow puppetry, or wayang, has been drawing crowds for over half a millennium with its distinctly Indonesian music, intricately carved protagonists, riot of colour and plots based on ancient fables with their moral messages or stories from religious texts such as the Ramayana
Wayang Kulit in Central Java Indonesia is probably one of the oldest continuous traditions of storytelling in the world, and certainly among the most highly developed, The wayang is a flat or round puppets used for shows in Java.The wayang kulit is the flat one and it is made with buffalo leather. They are maipulated behind a white screen with a back light, so the attendance can see them as shadow puppets. The puppets are stored in line, in a banana tree trunk, behind the screen and in front of the puppeter.
The puppeter is called the dalang.

Polina poses against the wall in a orient styled dress. The shadows are making the patterns very unique and lively.
Para desafío en lío 2015: 2/15: sombras:
UN pequeño y fugaz beso en medio del camino. Ya era al ateardecer, lo que alagra mucho las sombras, y me hubiera gustado que quedara más clara la escena, pero si le digo a mi marido que hay que repetir otra vez..... mañana paseo sola! ;-))
I was photographing some shadows on the wall (as you do) and this guy stopped to watch - so I shot his shadow too......
Water ripples and strong shadows on the lower lake in Cheltenham's Pittville Park.
Nice reflections of the bright blue sky in the rippled water.
Shadow of an airliner flying over the Potomac River. Taken from the Wilson Bridge.
I blogged about this on my Web site: The Wilson Bridge trail is wonderful
The Ryssby Church is located on North 63rd Street in Boulder County near Nelson Road, west of Longmont, Colorado. It was built from dressed field stone to serve the Swedish Families that worked the lands out here. They must have had a great affinity for all the rocks they found in the soil out west of town. Just like back home. Those same families continue to worship here and maintain the church and cemetery over all the decades. In accordance with the Elders' lifestyles, the church has a quite austere interior. The Swede Lakes stand unseen in the background to the right.
Eddie and I passed this up the other day when the sky did not warrant but Eddie revisited it later when the skies cooperated for a few minutes. December 26th proved to be a purely Colorado day and Eddie rolled me out just as the skies were burning off to some artistic cloud structures. We were scouting for shots under this sky. After all, we can't let days like this pass us by!
Eddie was stuck over at his venue but I chased, then crawled (like a reptile) across the ground until the clouds aligned. I think this shot integrates the rays from the clouds, without contrails for some reason, as the shadows of the surrounding trees rise to meet them. We were about to lose the low, stark light that created these shadows. At the same time Eddie was whining about pruning the branches. I'll bring my WoodZig for him next time so he'll shut up. I, myself, on the other hand, am seldom that formal with branches. Subsequent shots allowed this particular cloud structure to steeple. other opportunities, we still had time left to evaluate Ryssby Church. I noticed how the skies accentuated the first shot of the Steeple and church entrance itself so I waited again until the clouds reassembled behind the cross at another spot. This is served up as two RAW, one transparent Alpha Channel, layers. Eddie has posted another. Heh,heh. Now he is whining about his auto-focus, which I turn off. We'll see if his powder is dry? It may be he will have to learn something about Genuine Fractals to save his butt.
Even in this dry autumn that is stretching nearly into January, we puttered the back roads with the windows open. The colors that are left are the usual late autumn low sunlight colors as befit Colorado. Isabella Bird commented on the sere seasonal colors in the Longmont area when she visited in the Nineteenth Century.
