Shadow Shot Sunday 65 - New York



















I am back from my six week summer break in London, UK and New York, and thought I would celebrate my return with a simple shadow shot taken on the streets of Brooklyn. I love the old walk up tenement buildings with their wrought iron fire escapes which throw such great geometric patterns on the walls making a very typical New York Street scene...... I look forward to catching up with your blogs today, and for lots more shadow photography be sure to visit http://www.heyharriet.blogspot.com/. Enjoy!!

I am so sorry to have missed you! I was on Long Island...hence wrought iron SSS! Two posts ago I also posted something similar from Brooklyn for Ruby Tuesday! Look forward to seeing more of Mexico from you!

It is nice to see you back in the 'big taco'! A new York fire escape is often an iron monstrosity, but the elegant shadows are stylish, almost beautiful. The urban landscape is full of artistic sights, and you have captured them wonderfully!

Welcome back! Great photo, glad you enjoyed your trip!

Annie Jeffries said...

Startling. It's difficult to separate the shadows from it's subject. Excellent choice.

Hey Harriet said...

Cool shot! It makes me immediately think of New York! I'm so envious of your trip and look forward to you sharing some of your holiday photos! Great having you join in SSS again. We missed you!

Great to have you back blogging away again! I love those fire escapes and brick walls of the Brooklyn walk-ups, too.
