Sunny Glasses

Shadows sometimes people don't see shadows. The Chinese of course never paint them in pictures, oriental art never deals with shadow. But I noticed these shadows and I knew it meant it was sunny.
David Hockney 1937-

    I love shadows and I've found I notice them more and more lately. Great take on this one.

    Hello Don,
    thank you for leaving me a comment, I think I might keep the dome for air storage;) And when I think it has served long enough as air storage, I might go for your first option, the rose.

    Love the shadow of the glasses. I do a bit of shadowhunting myself, now and again.

    Good night from Helsinki.

    Nice shot.
    I did a painting years ago that was just the shadow of glasses...It was interesting and difficult.
    Love the quotes you choose.

    Hi Don,
    I jumped to your blog from Scott's blog. I always love to look at new photoblogs and I love your photography! You are very talented and I enjoy the variety in your posts. Reminds me of me.....there are so many interesting things to photograph, I can't settle down to just one type of subject. I'll visit again soon.

    shadows are one of my favorites-- I have done several posts on shadows-- dancing in between the light and dark. People don't always see how much color is in the shadows.
