This picture shows a beautiful contrast of light and shadow. As I take pictures, I find that I look for interesting light patterns, shadows, contrast, reflections, and silhouettes. Those add so much interest to a picture. Many of my pictures are taken in the same place, but no two look exactly alike because of the differences in the light and shadow. Quite a few years ago Catherine and I spent two days at the Grand Canyon. While there we took advantage of two tours - one at sunrise and one at sunset. I was fascinated at how I could look at the same section of the Grand Canyon for 15 minutes and see what appeared to be many different places, all because of the way the light shined on it.
Another favorite is sunrise at the beach. It's eerie in the dark. Then the first few rays of light appear, full of hope and promise for the day. Then more and more light shines until there is full sunlight. It's beautiful and different each time. A true gift.
Beautiful picture, Terri.
ReplyDeleteThanks. This was actually taken in 2004 right after Hurricane Charlie. Taken with my film camera.
