I took this photograph of the shadow of a tree at the weekend in the soft warm afternoon light. I’d been looking for a nice crisp tree shadow for a little while. It is remiss of me once again to be unable to name the tree. I focused on the artistic aspect rather than the scientific for this image.
The Lantern Room 
Nice combination of the shadow with the fallen leaves.

Thanks Fergie. I’ll probably go back to have a proper look at the tree and leaves and will update 🙂

Sometimes the simplest things are the most profound, I love the way there are actually falling leaves on the shadow’s branches.

Thanks Hallysann. Yes – in a way, this could be a summer shot as it’s so bright and the contrast is so strong. The long shadows of Autumn are fun 🙂

Thank you elmediat! I did a B&W version but it wasn’t as strong. Maybe I needed to spend a bit more time on it.
