Shadow is a funny thing. Sometimes it looks as though it is chasing us and sometimes it is as if we are chasing them. Sometimes, it makes us look funny and sometimes they look quite unexpected like a piece of art. But, chasing shadows are quite fun and exciting.
It was a cloudy day, hardly any sun in sight. I was hanging my laundry at the balcony when I spotted it. It was very soft and very slight, there but almost not.
When suddenly the sun shone through, I couldn't help but chase after the shadow. It was a very quick "now I see it, now I don't" moment. Within a few seconds, the shadow disappeared.
I took a photo slightly higher up to capture a "bigger picture".
My balcony had a railing and I had plants around with its metal holders. The shadow created on the ground looked like a painting almost. When things are overlapped, the look of the shadow totally changes.
This one looked like a narrow bird's cage.
It is fun chasing after shadows, whether it is shadows from the sun or from the light indoors. Each has its own beauty and form possibilities.
All photos are my own, taken using my iPhone 6.
Good to see you again. I was worried about you. All thebest for 2021!
The onlt thing chasing me is a strong, icy wind. 💖
