I was taken by the shadows created by the glass roof of the British museum. I took few shots around the museum with the histogram pushed to the right so they were slightly high key and with a little bit of post processing I nudged up the contrast and brightened the whites to give this very black and white effect.
The figure is painted with airbrush on, the underside is dark and the top is bright.

The beauty of Vestmannabjørgini (Vestmanna sea cliffs), Streymoy (Faroe Islands).
Known as the Vestmannabjørgini, these majestic sea cliffs rise up to 600 meters above the turquoise hues of the churning sea below roughly halfway between Vestmanna and Saksun, on the north side of Streymoy, Faroe Islands.
The cliffs are characterized by their numerous clefts and green blankets of luxuriant grass and mosses (sheep graze quite undisturbed on the clifftops).
The boats that sail here give an unparalleled view of the cliffs and the birds as they weave in between the numerous sea stacks and in and out the narrow straits bound by sheer rock walls and dark echoing grottoes.
These soaring cliffs provide safe nesting places during the summer months (May-August) for thousands upon thousands of seabirds, above all puffins, guillemots, razorbills and gulls.

This was taken in theodore roosevelt island in Washington DC. I was looking for interesting subjects when I saw this. I thought the shadows cast on the trees and it's reflections were pretty cool. It looks like the non- shadowed portion of the pic has framed the shadowed portion.
The primary subject is the wrought iron leaves which is a piece of art deco that hangs above a leather couch in our great room. The room has vaulted ceilings and the shadows are created from outside trees that are shining through doors at the bottom and skylight windows at the top. I found the upper shadow to present an image that one could easily visualize many different artistic impressions.. Just for fun my friends!
Shadows of a balloon with the sun shining from behind. It was cool as the balloons acted as a lens to make the shadows appear in color. I had fun taking the picture as I waited for the parade to start.
I’ve always felt more at home in lush forests, along rugged coasts or anywhere nature overflows with life and color. That’s why photographing a place like Bardenas Reales is still a personal challenge for me — a landscape stripped down to its bare bones. No trees, no rivers… just clay, wind, cracks and silence. But maybe that’s exactly why it’s so powerful.
After several visits, I finally began to understand its rhythm. On my sixth trip, everything aligned — the sky caught fire, the textures came alive, and I remembered an old composition I had in mind. This time, I knew exactly where to stand.
What drew me most to press the shutter was the light: the sun was setting low on the horizon, illuminating the ridges and cracked clay forms in front of Castildetierra. Some shapes glowed gold, while others fell into deep shadows — a perfect play of light and darkness that added depth, contrast and drama to an otherwise harsh environment.
Yes, it’s a classic viewpoint. But this is my version — shaped by patience, countless attempts and a deep respect for this barren land.
posting this image scared me and still does... while it might be seen initially as a spooky image, what scares me more is the inherent vulnerability
I wonder is there a knowing beyond what the mind can fathom and is this what sometimes haunts me to pay attention?
here is where I feel the vulnerability - in this place of uncertainty where the mind can't go, because of it's very limits - but a sense of something behind all of it, weaving through everything, timeless and immeasurable...
an incantation to let go in order to become...
A beer glass's random encounter with the sun; I was intrigued that the red bits were opaque enough to produce black shadows.
