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.

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."

We have had lots of clouds and rain. Few chances for outdoor shadows and didn't try indoor shadows.

Original inspiration was a draft from The Gartner Manuscript, adapted to 8 shaft shadow weave. Yarns are 8/2 unmercerized cotton sett at 24 e.p.i.
The Chihuly Garden and Glass Exhibition in Seattle, Washington celebrates the remarkable work of glass artist Dale Chihuly. The exhibition features a museum-style exhibition hall, glasshouse, and glass and plant exterior garden and is located in the Seattle Center, within the shadow of the Space Needle.
Part of our 2013 Christmas trip to Seattle.
Shot with Nikon D600 and Nikon 50mm D.
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
Lovely day playing in the garden, Abbie demanded hopscotch like at the park so this 4 year old friendly sized one was drawn
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.

This photo was taken on February 2, 2007. It is not one of my most popular photos but I like loved the shadows on the snow cast from the trees in the wetlands behind my yard.
Note: When I pull up this photo on my pc in the same size the snow has an amazing sparkle to it which is one of my favorite details of this photo. But unfortunately for some reason Flickr seems to cheat us some on resolution so the sparkle doesn't display here.
I didn't try it yet, but of course you can click the letter L, to see if the sparkle will display this way, but I am tending to doubt it..
Best viewed at larger size. Shadows of the wind and the waves playing on the pylons of the Campbellford bridge over the Trent River.
Listen - There is a sound beyond every sound, and there is a face almost glimpsed, like a friends, when shadows move.

AAW Jan. 26 - Feb. 2: Letter Art
The shadow of our backyard swingset creates the letter M.
WIT: in post-processing, a little straightening, but have to allow for the fence slope upward to the right; lowering of exposure, darkening of shadows and increased contrast
This barn is held up by cables so I didn't dare walk inside. One wrong foot and it'd fall down for sure. This was taken from the open door....I just really liked the light and the shadows coming through the partially dismembered roof.
Every picture has its shadows
And it has some source of light
Blindness blindness and sight
The perils of benefactors
The blessings of parasites
Blindness blindness and sight
Threatened by all things
Devil of cruelty
Drawn to all things
Devil of delight
Mythical devil of the ever-present laws
Governing blindness blindness and sight
