Description
Captured 1/6/15, circa 7:30 am, on the boulevard on my way to Walmart.
Love the depth in this. The bulging shadow in the center is from a large banner on a long pole. With the sun so low, shoot these scenes when you can at this time of year. Similar photos to come from this trek.

It's fascinating the shapes that shadows take; you clearly have the longest legs of any human on the planet, LOL! I wondered about that slightly less defined shadow between yours and the hydrant's shadows. I never would have guessed a banner! That low sun makes magic, doesn't it? Superb capture, Harry, your shadowplay shots are wonderful!

Interesting. light can create some very interesting shadows, can't it? It almost makes it look like you are on stilts for this photo. Excellent catch!

When this went up, I laughed at Denise's "you clearly have the longest legs of any human on the planet," because these shots attest to that! And because I remember you saying, at least once in this gallery, that you aren't a tall man. (I'm 5' 6", which should be respectable in most universes, but which is short by today's standard; so being on the short side will always win you kudos in my book.) But this is wonderful not only for the three shadows, but the long lines in the road, which harmonize with the shadows. (Ie, the orange curb line, the gutter line, the street-lines including the black section that I assume is a repaired area, etc.) The whole shot resonates with these lines. But also because the banner shadow stretches out nearly to China---that baby goes back and back! (Being softer than the other two shadows, it's a hovering presence, or a space ship...) And one can't forget the near obliterating light on the hydrant. Another terrific early morning light-shadow study from you.
