3 Shadows
This photo was taken at the hotsprings inside Yellowstone National Park. The shadows are my wife, brother-in-law, and yours truly. This photo still gives me much satisfaction when I look at it, I think it is one of the best photos I’ve taken so far as an amateur photographer. Check out other entries here.

I have a very similar photo of one of our daughters and me, but I didn’t use it. I enjoyed this one.

A nice take on this week’s photo challenge!
Interesting – I have sometimes inadvertently taken shadow pictures because I can’t see the screen in sunlight. I never thought about the way they declare there is a background! And, I like your theme too, every so often I think I might change it, then I don’t because I do like this one.
What I like about your photo is that the people look like pioneers. The outfits just make the photo a little bit different at least that is the way it strikes me. Very nice.
Great shot and composition. 🙂
Thank you Rosanna, Elspethc, and Barbara for visiting and commenting.
Elspethc, I too like you have thought of changing my theme, mainly because I wish we could have more choice over the type and size of the fonts we might wish to use.
Barbara, I hadn’t thought of us looking like pioneers, interesting take on the photo. Our hats are all the same, we purchased them at the park and quite like them.
I love noticing shadow and surface. You got such a great combination here!
Great picture of yourselves at a magical place!
Thanks Inge, Marso, and Mithriluna for your comments and for visiting.
Cool ….

Don’t put yourself in the background, Dim – you are a lot more photographer than you think of yourself – as a former pro I see what you like to do and that is what counts 😀 – Superb photo to use in this challenge. To you and yours beloved have a great weekend 😉
Many thanks Mariane for your kind and encouraging words. Blessings on your weekend too. 🙂

looks like a fragment
of a Hollywood Western:
“The shadows are my wife,
brother-in-law,
and yours truly…”
Now that’s a creative take on it, are you a Hollywood scout? 😉
