Me and My Shadow, a photo from Venice, Veneto

Photographer's Note

Sometimes, my shadow appears really short and small,
At other times, it stretches around of me, thin and tall.

Sometimes, my shadow is on my left, sometimes right.
Quite often, I find myself having to hunt for it.

Depending on how the sun or moon shines on me,
My shadow may be hidden, or may be within my sight.

To my shadowy friend, I do feel really very attached.
We are two of a kind, and, I think, very well matched.

Me and my shadow - we are together everyday,
Never from each other, will we ever be severed.

Hi May
love the colours here in this beautifully observed and composed image. The shadow is perfectly placed and the mixture of textures and elements so harmonious. Like it a lot!

Une composition assez minimaliste mais qui donne une superbe photo, lumineuse et très colorée.
Amicalement

Hi May,
A nice simple composition with some great bold colours. The shadow of the lamp really tops this off.
Cheers

Ciao May
hai una bella galleria, molto interessante e variegata, belle le immagini della "mia" Italia.
Questa composizione è molto piacevole, i colori contrastano molto, i fiori fanno da cornice e la lampada sembra illuminare la scritta.
Complimenti
Carlo
