Available Light _Light and Shadow - Two Assignments

The second part of the assignment asks us to focus on shadows:


Shadow:  Create 3 non-related extraordinary images where shadow is utilized as a primary or complimentary component of the composition.  Images should have a mysterious, abstract or artistic theme.  






This one is my favorite.  I thought it was mysterious 
but it did not meet Cliff's criteria.  Perhaps I should
have converted it to black and white.
I put a lot of these shadow images on my Smug Mug account:  If you have time, look at the images and 
let me know which three you think meet the criteria by writing a comment at the end of this post.

Selective Light:  Create an extraordinary image wherein light has been utilized in 
a selective manner. accentuating  the center of interest in a very impact full and 
dramatic way.







These were the images I turned in.   I have not received a grade yet.....

Grade received - B+.    Cliff thought the light in the "Golden Light" image was gorgeous - but was unmoved 
by the subject - he encouraged the class to  "marry" the subject with the light.   I guess that means to try 
and see a connection between the subject and the light before you push the shutter.
