Assignment 19: Shadow Photography -- Congratulations Ade

[erno james]

This is a totally cool topic and i gotta say, there have been some really killer diller shots so far!


My entry is from Yosemite National Park:There aresubtle shadows where the snow meets the water to define the little snow banks. Canon 7D with a 24-70 at 66mm, ISO 160, f/11for 1/50 sec, EV +2/3

my "fun" shot was taken with a Sony (gasp!) DSC-TX5, handheld and nearly dropped (which explains the motion blur) while riding a bike over a bumpy wooden bridge. Anyway, here is some goofy looking exif data: f/ 3.5 for 1/30 sec, built in lens of course at 4.4 mm, ISO 125

Congratulations on the win, Denise.

I don't have many pictures that suit this assignment, but why not have a go anyway? The first is my entry [edited in response to feedback below]. It has been at least a month since I posted some pictures from my Antarctic expedition, so here's a reminder of how cute the baby penguins are.

This one was taken about an hour before sunset this time last year at Bow Fiddle Rock in Scotland.

The penguin shadows will win it all hands down. Awesome shots from way way south of the border!

So far that Penguin shot has got to be a winner. Great shot!

Yep it

OMG those penguins are too cute for words. I love it! What a great photo! I don't even want to enter now! Maybe, later. []

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I couldn't ignore your advice so I've changed my entry.
