Point of Clarity
Point of Clarity
The shadows from wildflowers on rough newsprint drawing paper, cool shadows and warm highlights, almost look like an abstract pattern but for the clearly outlined stems in the center.

Le Matin Bleu
Le Matin Bleu
I believe it is Bella looking sculptural as a silhouette and graceful as an elongated shadow among all the geometric shapes and shadows of my kitchen in the morning.
The blue is because I left the incandescent light filter on in my DSLR, and this is what it does to natural daylight. I actually quite like it as a technique. I like monochromatic photos and duotones, which is technically what this is, black in the shadows and with all other colors tending in shades of blue.
Pourquoi Français? Because I already have a post or two entitled “Blue Morning”, and Mimi, Mewsette and I all have French names. Because, why not?
Seen first on The Creative Cat.

My Shadow Self
My Shadow Self
My black kitty Mimi greets her shadow cast in a pool of sunlight The light shining through old wavy glass creates a subtle pattern of shadow and light that resembles water mingled with the gentle striations of pale wood grain. Is it water, or is it light? Or is it an illusion? Does Mimi look at her darker self, or just the self she has become at age 11 after six early litters of kittens, life on the streets, rescue and life in a safe and comfortable home? I think I feel a poem coming on.
It’s challenging enough to photograph black cats, let alone in high-contrasting sun and shadow, and when there are as many as five if the whole family is together, but this is one I love.

Flower Shadows
Flower Shadows
In photographing a vase of flowers in dappled sunlight, suddenly the sun shone full through the leaves and this shadow appeared like a vision. The photo of the flowers was nice, but this was so unexpected it deserves its own time.

Kitchen Shadows
Kitchen Shadows
The early sunlight shines straight through the screen door, casting fine lines of shadow on the cabinet, rolling over all the little nicks and dings and stains on this vintage handmade cabinet.

Who Is That Tall, Dark Stranger?
Who is that tall, dark stranger who’s come to town? It wouldn’t be…Sir Jelly of Bean?
A tall, dark stranger came to town, casting a long shadow in the evening sun as he slowly walked across…the table.
