Chasing Shadow

September 01, 2009

“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.”

Buddha

I like these words. And also like shadows.

I’m obsessed with taking pictures of shadows. I like the way they can magnify or transform objects. A nice foliage, a paper cut or anything really that produces an interesting shadow is an excuse to take a picture !

Regarding the paper cut, it’s in progress and will share with you as soon as I finish…

*Incredible. Like my father, you have the “eye” for great photos where others would walk right on past, not giving the shadow another thought. Cheers, *Heather** heather
