Focus on Life: In the Shadows

...or are we...


This week's Focus on Life prompt from Sally Russick asks us to capture the interplay of light and shadows. Even though the title implies that the shadows are what we should concentrate on, I found that the sunny day when I went out with my camera taught me how shadows emphasize the light. 







Of course, I managed to sneak in some beautiful fall color!

See the light and shadow that the others have found.

  9. I never thought about it that way - but yes, I can see that now. Much like sadness or troubles can make us appreciate the light in our lives.

  12. A feast for the eyes. Love the first photo especially. Now I will demonstrate my lack of "fowl" knowledge. Are those geese? They looks so regal! And the last one of the stream frame with the vibrant fall foliage is wonderful!

  15. Oh what truly beautiful shots! Thank you for the shadows on the water in that first pic - it's awesome and also for the fall colors in the rest of your photos, too. I don't see that here in the desert at this time of you and so any glimpse I can get of this type of pic is fabulous!
