Thursday’s Task

[Peter Michal]

Here are a few - I was looking for examples where I felt the relationship between light and shadow was an important part of the image. Hopefully these work.

1) Bowman Lake sunshine spotlighting the larches on the south shore

2) Light shining through the Pfeiffer arch with the rest in shadow

3) Yosemite falls in full light with the valley floor and foreground in shadow

Excellent examples of sunlight and shadows Dan—especially the two in B&W that emphasize the tonal gradation…love the first one featuring the prominent tree! Your color images also are very nice, especially your first (my favorite) and third. The final image (Antelope Canyon?) also is perfect for this week’s theme—nice image as well!
