Shadowplay IV by TwoPynts
Open full image in new tabDescription
"A photographer must be prepared to catch and hold on to those elements which give distinction to the subject or lend it atmosphere. They are often momentary, chance-sent things: a gleam of light on water, a trail of smoke from a passing train, a cat crossing a threshold, the shadows cast by a setting sun. Sometimes they are a matter of luck; the photographer could not expect or hope for them. Sometimes they are a matter of patience, waiting for an effect to be repeated that he has seen and lost or for one that he anticipates. Leaving out of question the deliberately posed or arranged photograph, it is usually some incidental detail that heightens the effect of a picture

Fantastic shadow play here Kort, but the water looks like BLOOD, it is Halloween though ! KOOL KAPTURE KORT ~Cheers~ :o)
Shadows and reflections, always make me think of Platos bizzare philosophies! This is a truly wonderful and tranquil scene!! I can hear the water moving!! Very Zen like!
*** Funny, I thought it looked more like red wine. ;^P ***
Amazing beautiful!!!!
Gorgeous. I love the colors and the shadows....... Beautiful. Thank you for sharing :)
Very nice shot of the shadows and light across the rocks. Good job. HUGS!!!
No, it looks like the blood of a wino!. Great shot! KP
What I find so brilliant about this photo is the reddish tones carried from the water to the flower. A perfect balance of color here...lovely shot!!
The light on the rocks and plants is lovely but I think I like the water in this the best. The lighting conditions really show it off nicely. Very good.
Oh that's a real fabulous take color photography! The light and shadow play here looks really spectacular! I love it! Brvo!!!
I really like the "stripyness" on the rocks. Thats what makes the image. Plus the brown water. Great shot, and splendid addition to the series!! 8;o)
