Here's my first assignment entry, just for the record, i think these assignments are great, really got me thinking, I'm usually a bit of an opportunist photographer, but this time i found myself looking at shadows everywhere, great inspiration.


This pic is of a glass pendant light we have, it has a nice glow but not well defined shadows, so I got one of my high powered bike lights and shone it under the light, a few pics with the (pendant) light off and on, but off gave the best results where shadows were concerned. I like the fact that in parts of the image its hard to tell what is real and what is shadow. I also like how the shadows show the shape of the pendants, but the actual pendant itself doesn't. (am I allowed to big up my own pic? hope that's not against the rules).
