They were walking on the wet sand...

Many things can actually happen on the narrow strip of sand that runs along the sea, if you find a good point of view and you look carefully...

Bonus, the song "I'm walking the dog", written by Cliff and Tex Grimsley:

I'm a-walkin' the dog
And I'm never blue
I'm a-walkin' the dog
I ain't thinkin' 'bout you
Don't need no one
To tie me down
I'm a-walkin' the dog
And a-paintin' the town

Such an easy life
I never knew
Until the day
That I left you
Well, I'm a carefree lad
That's seen the light
I'm a-walkin' the dog
All the day and all night

Well, I'm full of pep
I just can't grow old
I got a one-track mind
So I've been told
But I'm fancy free
I don't worry no how
And, I'm walkin' the dog
All the law will allow

( to hear the song, you can see this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t42XFnpyj9s )

Nice and strange this pov from above, with the shadows duplicating the subjects and actually being the main subject
Good work !
Ciao Stefano

Hello Daniel! Perfect light and shadow. Ideal POV and capture. Great effect. Shalom!

Hello Daniel
I love your photos with shadows, you have great ideas! I like this POV from above, and this photo is great like all the others I've seen.
Have a nice day!

Hello Daniel,
A new work with verticality and the shades.
It is successful like the precedents.
Yesterday in a French newspaper (Libération) which made an article on Tel Aviv I read:


"Le matin, d'élégants Israéliens, promènent leurs élégants animaux et on dit que ces déambulations hygiéniques donnent mieux à draguer que toutes les boites et les plages de la ville.

Marc

Hello Daniel,
An elegant composition, very cleverly made and well observed.
Regards,
Gert

Hi Daniel,

very original composition on this photo, playing very well with the light. I can't decide thought if it would be better with the whole shadow or not, but anyway the photo is something special and very well presented.

Regards,

Mateja

şalom daniel,
good capture,
i'm trying like same your photos ....
according to me very interesting shadow's shots,
congratulations
and best regards from istanbul,
iffet

Hi Daniel,
Such a clever and striking idea, which is made to work by the excellent POV. The shadows defintely attract one's attention and seem to have a life of their own. Very well done.
Cheers Grant

Hello daniel. The photo is really original. Light, shade POV, composition, - everything in the best way. Very beautifully and worth seeing. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello Daniel, Another perfect example of your artistic manipulation of shadows. Excellent result in composition, colour & detail.
My compliments
Santo

Hi Daniel,
a well-chosen point of view that gives the leading role to these shadows. Too bad the woman's shadow is cut off...Still, interesting shot!

Yours,

Philippe

Superb photo, great perspective and framing. I like the vivid colours too. Very well done!

Well seen, but I regret that the shadow of the woman is cut.
regards

Hi Daniel, where were you while taking this creative shot?? great pov, and you have used the shadows effectively.. great position of the dog and the girl.. i think S&B would be nice too.. but the pink shirt of the girl is the key color here.. great work, congratulations,
ReLa

Hi Daniel,
What a great play with shadows. They are just optimally sized to show girl and the dog on more or less natural dimensions. This also has harmonous reddish colours.
Kari

i m sooo jelaous of this one, i wish i had taken it;)... the pink girl, the orange dog, the milk chocolate sand and the perfect black shadows are just so cool daniel... superb one indeed... cheers...

best sERGIO

Hi Daniel,
What great graphical effect in this composition! Your creativity on having looked for these settings and having taken advantage skilfully of the shades, gives a magnificent result to the image.
I wonder which was your POV.....
A great work, my friend.
Best regards,
Josep

Bonjour,

daniel

Hello Daniel,

Excellent coup d'oeil, cette grande ombre est fabuleuse !
Bravo !
Bonne journée
Marie

Hi Daniel,
I missed your last photos, but they're so good, with such an original subject and realisation !
Il just love this one, the shadow is different from the lady, so funny.
Just excellent !
Marion

Hi Daniel! I like the game with the shadow here... but where were you? This is a very strange POV... :) Congrats!
Sotiris

Great use of perspective here Daniel, well-seen and creative.
I can't help but think that it would have been even better with the whole of the girl's shadow included, but maybe that would have detracted too much from the shadow of the dog, which is very nicely caught.
Good shot, I like it.

Cheers,
Ben
