[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Ok well I'm sure on TL you guys will probably guess, but some friends who saw this couldn't figure it out. And no the camera isn't sitting on the ledge and I didn't photoshop anything out. No tripod either.

Probably gave it away with that one. Wow what a dork I am I totally need a life.

Nerd Notes...errr I mean Technical Notes: coverted to B&W. Adjusted curves to blacken shadow. Sharpened. Shot on top of a rooftop with my friend Laura agreeing to model with me.

I'll post the color original to a workshop because I like that one as well.

cool idea you have here, Daniel. OK, i will guess, your camera is on your strap danggling on your tummy or chest and you turned on the timer while posing with the lady. :)

The texture on this is really great as are the shadows. Wonderful choice for B&W.

Hi Daniel,
Creative shot. Excellent work and well done on the composition.
I like the B.& W. almost from Hitchcock.

This is very yin and yang Daniel. I love the implication of the masculine and feminine shadows. This is very Carl Jung. Well done, B

Cool. I like your shadow photos! Great sharpness and lighting. I like that you have two people here. My guss is that you used a tripod but stood so your shadow made it "disapear" in your shadow. Anyway, cool photo! I prefer the b&w mostly because it has better contrast. JP

Guess? Perhaps this is not your shadow? You picture 2 other person. You didn't mention that you are on the picture.

If one of the shadow is you... i see one easy way. The camera is in your neck with the timer. you are the tripod.

Or you could simply ask another person :o)

It's a good composition anyhow. It's dynamic!

Interesting photo ....
cool original photo ... cheers

Very different and creative shot. I usually like silhouette shots, and this isn't really a silhouette, it is quite a bit different but interesting being a shadow... the black and white looks cool in this compo. Nice one.

Very good work. Nicely done. I like the B/W as well as the colour. But if I were to choose between them would be the B/W. Well done!!

I love creative and new ways of doing photography and this one turned out brilliant. Love the B&W.

Daniel,
How'd I miss this one in your gallery?
I love the shadows and the use of B&W.
The color version was nice too but the B&W rocks!
Good sharp image and the pipe has a nice clear shadow.
Very good post!
