Title: [Theme] shadows and light
Post by: smusesuse on January 13, 2017, 18:12:11
I was looking for a theme thread about shadows but couldn't find one. So I thought, why not start one? :) I'll go first with a somewhat weird dark portrait that - for some strange reason - I quite like a lot. Looking forward to your contributions!

Nice one Susanne.
Amongst many things, my eye keeps being drawn by the enigmatic stack of crockery in the background (full of noses, eyes and ears).

Since photography is all about shadow and light I feel the urge to contribute with a picture from this afternoon. Coming out from the store I couldnt resist this scene.

Thank you, Colin! I agree with you, somehow the background really adds something. :)

I really like your shadow action shot! Makes me wonder whether the person was running towards us or away from us? Cool capture!

Title: Re: [Theme] shadows and light
Post by: Jack Dahlgren on February 09, 2017, 03:58:09
Borge,

It is the inside of a new building for our product teams. It is a bit of a challenge, but it has been very interesting. We are going to move a couple of thousand people in this Autumn. The idea behind the design is that most of the active parts of the building are in the middle (you can see a multi-faceted heart towards the left) and that desks and workstations are around the outside. We hope this promotes people interacting with each other often, but not when they want to be working quietly. If you want coffee or need to use the bathroom you will have to go to the middle.

I'm sure to be posting more of the building as we go along.

Frank, it actually was shot in July...but it is bright and sunny today in October.
I often envy the Europeans with their wide range of daylight qualities, except maybe the long days of mostly cloudy winter.  Sunlight diffused by clouds is relatively rare and usually lasts a short time here. When it occurs, I'll run outside with a camera and look for something to photograph.

And this was taken on the day on which we were told that Kristina was pregnant with a healthy baby girl (we knew she was pregnant 3 months before that, but knowing the babies gender, we could start thinking about a name. This was 6 months before Anouk was born)

The dry air and the lower incident angle of sunlight (compared to that in Japan) should make the shadows and the light interesting.

I wonder if the coloration of the light reflected from the asphalt ground in the first image were caused by the color of the wind shield of the car as well as the LoCA of the lens?  The effect looks interesting and works nicely in the image.

My guess is window tint plus low angle sun-rays too, going straight into the lens, that will make for a killer enough combination  :D. This picture was taken in La Línea de la Concepción so the air is actually very humid, like an island.

No excuses needed: dark skies and even darker, ominous appearance. Works very well.

Paco is right.  The eagle is nicely silhouetted in front of the backlight from the cloud.  A huge natural photo studio!

I have been inspired by the american painter Edward Hopper regarding shadows and the light. The photograph shown is one of many taken in an effort to create some hundred images based on my inspiration from his paintings. To me this is a continuing process in my daily living environment. Maybe a book in the future...? Nikon Df, AF-I Nikkor 300mm 2.8, aperture 16, Nikon polarizer and a tripod.

LOL, Colin.  There are indeed handrails.  I just tried to nail the shooting position so that the bars would be perfectly aligned and become invisible.  It looks as if there are just the lights and the shadows: natural visual trick.  :)  If I remember correctly, the illumination lamps are embedded in the floor.
