Shadowplay II by TwoPynts

"The camera machine cannot evade the objects which are in front of it. When the photographer selects this movement, the light, the objects, he must be true to them. If he includes in his space a strip of grass, it must be felt as the living differentiated thing it is and so recorded. It must take its proper but no less important place as a shape and a texture in relationship to the mountain tree or what not, which are included." ~ Paul Strand
The grass is not always greener on the other side. The photo was taken through the usual tweeks and then given a slight color adjustment. ----- Thank you for 'chair raising' comments on my last upload, Shadowplay I.

Lol @ Eric, they won't know Zeppelin from a trampolin sir, LOL! Great sense of depth created by the length of the shadow.

Amazing things you choose to share, a simple game of tag between the light and the dark, becomes anallegorical photograph. Stunning shot! Thanks for sharing. BJ Thanks digimon! I'll never get Zep out of my head!

And you sure is a tall fella arent ya. #:oP You sure have beautiful lawns there as well....had that been my lawn then there would be at least 20 turds that Eija left that i would have had to clone out. #:oP Have a wonderful day! #:o)
