Shadows

[Hideandwatch]

Like a child seeing it's shadow for the first time, so was I with the cam the on a couple of different evenings. The first did not turn out as well as I had hoped it would. It is a pic of my new Road Bike (Specialized Allez Elite), I was hoping for more of a dramatic shadow than this, but if you like cycling as much as I do you may appreciate it. The second and third are just long shadows of my self that have given me some different ideas that I plan on working with as soon as it warms up a little more.

Color

Duotone

comments appreciated

I like the self-portraits in the second and third images... that's pretty cool! I think the only thing that worked against you in the first image was the big tree or bush that you had your bike leaning against. Oh, cool bike btw!

Thanks Paul for the comments. I need to come up with a way to support the bike with not leaning it on a tree..more duotones to come in the near future with shadows elongated. Soooon as it warms up anyway...LOL...

I like your idea Hideandwatch, and really think you are on the right track with the last two pics. I look forward to seeing your pics on this
