Sure has been quiet around here, so I thought I would post another shot from Columbia.

I have been looking at interesting tree shadows lately, especially since all the leaves have fallen. I liked the shadows on the brick wall and iron door.

Nikon D-7100
Nikkor 16-85 @ 20mm

Cropped very slightly from top, left side, and bottom.

Please see the large version. Thanks!

Thank you for your comments on my recent images. I will appreciate your comments on this one, too.

I like this a lot, Preston. Great mix of elements and light. Works for me.

Preston, this was a neat idea. I like the way this came out. I don't get much chance for these type of scenes, but your area in Columbia has those era opportunities as seen here.
The only tiny thought for change might be to lift the shadow ever so slightly. Only to bring out more of the door's left jam area. But no nit, just thinking out loud.

Preston,

I really like and appreciate this one. I say that because for years and years I've been attracted, almost infatuated with bare tree shadows on buildings; I see them all the time in my own town. Problem is I don't feel comfortable walking around town and neighborhoods taking pictures of houses, condos and buildings.... In today's times, that might be frowned upon and someone would probably call the police!

Anyway, you're fortunate to have a town there in Columbia where the whole town is a State Park and photography is common place - so glad you found and were able to capture this opportunity.

Lon
