What an utterly miserable day it is here! Rain, wind and the greyest of skies. Halloween too. A manufactured corruption of an Irish tradition. Meh!

But life goes on. Clouds part. Sun shines. Here is an image taken in Copenhagen. In the distance you can see the sun.

Kiss that future

While in Copenhagen, I met Thomas Toft. If you have not checked out his photography, then you are in for a treat. A wonderful photographer and a great guy. One evening we cycled out to this wonderful location. Thanks again, Thomas!

God will send a sign. When he does be prepared.

Photography is fun when you experiment. This shot here of the flipped shadows is an experiment. I always liked shots like these but never tried it out. Standing at the intersection on the main shopping street in Copenhagen with the sun shining in your face and looking down to avoid and noticing these long shadows of the pedestrians waiting on the other side is a signal. Get that shot. I have to say that there are some whose shots like these are much better and if you want to see good examples of these here are two of the best: Michael Kistler and Thomas Toft.

Self esteem

Not to be unfair to the iPhone, I got a few shots  shadows with that also. But today I won’t post those; instead here are two people trying to evade their shadows.

Shadow Evasion
