Mostly out of curiosity, I downloaded the Reddit app and signed up. Much of what's on there makes me cringe or shake my head, but I've been spending time at their Photoshop subreddit. I've been learning some things as I look at what folks have submitted for critique. Composite photo montages are extremely popular there. Something many submitters ask is how to make an element blend better into the scene. Commonalities seem to be not paying attention to light sources, and not knowing much about shadows.
That prompted me to set up some things and shoot photos at various times of day to study contact shadows and cast shadows. This is one of the shots.
Mannequin's right foot is off the ground so there isn't a contact shadow there, but there are at the other foot and where parts of its body contact the ball and where the ball contacts the shelf.
I thought at first this would be a simple set up, but then I noticed that there is light reflected from the shelf upward onto the ball and mannequin, from the ball to the mannequin and from the mannequin to the ball.
New Mexico is a strange place for shadows. We're so high in elevation that in direct sunlight, shadows here don't behave the same as at lower elevations. The edges are more crisp. There isn't the same fall-off of density as the shadow gets farther from that which is casting it.
I had to shoot this photo before the sunlight directly hit the shelf in order to see the gradations of density.
Painters study light and shadows, but rarely do photographers. And if folks are going to be trying for photorealistic montage, they also need to know about light and shadows. As a result of these shadow study photos, back at Reddit I've been recommending that the compositors set up an action figure (all of them are guys in their teens and twenties it seems) and a desk lamp to see the directions that shadows are cast from a source and the gradations of density between contact and cast shadows and within cast shadows.
Storms in every direction with lots of lightning but unable to catch a single both. I ended up getting soaked by rain in the end,

Mischievous Bella got up on the shelf with my Bears & dolls, at first I was like what are you doing up there, then I realized how cute she looked & ran for the camera.....
Lucked upon this beautiful cloud formation. After it provided some rain, a nice mist covered the land in the distance.
Not the best shot because of the different exposure steps in the pic, but i thought it would be worth to show it.
This fascinating storm front came up from the valley of the river chemnitz.
For a little while it seemed to become a thunder cell but finally it didn`t happen.

One day, I found this old metal shelf in an alley and dragged it in and cleaned it up. It's the perfect place to store some of my papers.

As I walked this ridgeline I came upon these slabs of granite that looked as if they could be shelves on a wall.
If trying to survive in a culture of constant bullying, intimidation, corruption, mobbing, stalking and harassment; what kind of Shelf Life do you think you would have? Such a culture is thriving in Yosemite National Park. Those in power will deny it, so will those involved. Those that dedicate their lives to this Park, don’t dare stand up to the status queue of incompetence, corruption and intimidation. If they do so, they will risk their careers, their families, their livelihood, their Civil and Constitutional Rights. They will become Targeted Individuals.
This link shows examples of this immoral culture and acceptable behavior in Yosemite National Park:
Gang Staking, Community Stalking and Workplace Mobbing are thriving in Yosemite National Park. These immoral and illegal acts are carried out by my coworkers, neighbors, residents and contractors. They are allowed by Yosemite’s Law Enforcement and Superintendent.
Thank you for visiting my Photostream
I rearranged again. I bought some acrylic pieces to use as shelves, so it's all even now. Also, I can probably fit a few more future purchases in there. :-)
156458 approaches the stop at Falls of Cruachan with 1Y24 1211 Oban to Glasgow Queen Street.
The steep sided nature of the ravine where the River Awe opens out to join Loch Awe can clearly be seen here, the railway sits on a narrow tree lined shelf some feet above the road. The line here is protected from rock falls by a unique arrangement of wire activated semaphores - three such signals are visible in the shot. At the time of the image the trigger wires were being replaced.

[Update: I had to fix a minor issue with this shelf and when I re uploaded the model I somehow made it 3 land impact now. so its now 3li and not 5li.]

Leave dead trees and shrubs standing (as long as they are not in a dangerous place) to decompose naturally.
Unwanted plants or trees can be killed by ring-barking and left to provide a source of decaying wood. Make two thick cuts, about 20 cm apart, around the trunk and deep enough to cut through the bark and into the wood. The bark between the two cuts should also be stripped from the tree.
Ring -barking individual shrub stems also produces standing decaying wood without killing the whole plant.
Ring-barked plants will sprout from below any wounds and may need continual cutting of growth to completely kill the plant.
Leave old stumps to decay naturally and only remove them if necessary.
Amazing sky developed over home. Watching it pass over us was surreal, such a beast.

SUNSET ~ Shelf-Cloud ~ Florida Everglades
Palm Beach County, Florida U.S.A. - 6/23/20
I'm going to stay on this 'great-night' for a while, if you don't
mind. I got far too many 'great-keepers' to let them pass and
get buried in the archives. It was the best night of the year
(so far) with its amazing sunset/weather-phenomena and the
shelf-cloud. Only the second shelf-cloud I've ever seen in South
Florida. So bear with me for a little while, and thanks for looking.

Very muddy underfoot, but I managed to keep upright this time!....

Commissions very welcome...please message me here at flickr!
I wanted to make something I could actually display....most of my other miniature rooms are about four or five times bigger than this (same scale, but with more floorspace) and are rather cumbersome, ugly things that end up stacked on top of the wardrobe, so this was a conscious effort to make something small and decorative.
The chair is painted playmobil, but everything else made from scratch.
Well, no, I did not make the winkle....or the coins on the wall....and the painting is a photocopy...but the point is I tried not to rely too much on playmobil this time!
Funny, the looks I was getting when I pulled up and whipped out my PEN Mini in front of a caravan of "tornado tourers" with their SLR's...
From the summit of Square Top Mountain a view of Shelf Lake and Decatur Mountain.
The water way in the distance is Dillon Reservoir with the Tenmile Range behind that to the left and the Gore Range to the right.
Another shot of the shelf cloud East of Hanna, Alberta taken on July 15, 2016. The first one I posted was an experiment. In that shot I exported the image from my Canon 70D to my Android phone via WiFi and processed it using Lightroom for mobile. This version of the shot was done back at home on my Macbook Pro using Lightroom. Better results here I believe.
