Shadows - Part 3

My fascination with shadows continues.

Shadows: Round Two

I've been up to my eyeballs in business stuff; starting my own business is hard work. Here's a few shadow photographs to get you by until tomorrow. I promise to post more fun things the rest of the week.

Shadows

Shadows are such an intriguing thing. They can be lurking and creepy or distorted proportionally by where the sun is located in the sky.

As a designer, I sometimes create shadows on logos or lettering. I have a hard time figuring out the length and angle that makes it look natural. I know there must be some sort of mathematical solution to this, but my brain doesn't function that way.

Last weekend, I went out to take some photos with shadows in mind. I didn't find as many really interesting ones this time because I was in suburbia, but I still had a great time.

Exploring the Cemetery

I had a few extra minutes yesterday, so I decided to roam around the cemetery. I know that sounds weird, but it is right next to where I work. It has been raining for the last two days, so I was stoked about getting outside, even in the heat. I even had to wait for my camera to un-fog and adjust after being in the air conditioning all day.

The cemetery really lends itself to black and white, so it was exciting to explore with that in mind. I especially love the one of the spider in the flower holder.
