World war memorial at airport to remember fallen pilots. It is a series of copper signs in the shape of eagle feathers. A bright sun casts their shadows across a snowy ground.

Without shadows, you cannot see the light.- Haruki Murakami

This #photobyraykenny was taken in the Mount Pennell WSA. The shadows in the front & back highlight the ridge between which glows with beautiful light.

That Face You Make When …
some cross-shaped shadow creeps up on you.

#13thCentury #architecture #gargoyle

Photo: a gargoyle, half in and half out of a shadow itself and projecting from a high point on a church's exterior wall, scowls at the camera as the shadow of a double-cross finial creeps closer to it on an intersecting wall.
It wears nothing but a cap and cape. Its mouth stretches to its maximum size in a snarl. It crouches as if preparing to leap from its stony silence back into screaming life.

I love finding the beauty in industrial environments.

A monochrome night shot of an industrial cylindrical tank with a curved stair wrapping around it. The lamp post beyond casts shadows across the curved surface of the tank.

"The Fall of My Content"

"The Fall of My Content" by Susan Maxwell Schmidt

An altered autumn landscape photograph of a pair of trees that have grown together in a grassy field, beneath a clearing sky filled with a few remaining storm clouds glowing in the sunshine that has begun to peak from behind them. I used warm shades of plum purple, yellow, blue and bronze for my dreamy fall countryside scene, and distressed the image to create the moody feel. More info at susanmaxwellschmidt.com

View from the a metal external staircasein full light
At the bottom, one can see the ground on the left in shadow and on the right in full light where à black cat is waiting.
The shadows of the guardrail and staircase banister are cast diagonally across the staircase and are represented by intersecting horizontal and vertical lines forming squares.

Photo of shadows on the screened porch. A lizard is on the screen and its shadow is visible along with the shadows of the railings and the shadows of the shrubs in front of the porch.

The shadow of the canopy of a tree in Madrid in full, almost directly overhead sun. The shadow falls on the pavement around the trunk of the tree which rises vertically until it is out of frame.

The image shows a serene beach scene. In the foreground, an elderly woman is sitting comfortably on the sand, leaning against a row of weathered wooden posts. Two people are moving about on the beach, while buildings are arranged along the shore. The sky is clear and the overall tone of the photo is one of tranquility and peacefulness. This photo was taken in Saint-Malo, Brittany, France.
