Upgrade to e2
Tired of clicking to see a large version? Upgrade to e2 to browse all photos automatically at their largest size.Taken on Saturday in Cardiff. I think the shadow includes a bit of a street light. I toyed with the idea of removing the street light but it would no longer be an as seen candid.

I think the shadow is a great part of the image. Well done.
Mary
glad you left the shadow in Ken the lamp post shadow looks like his seat, the mono seems to fit the character well i also like the colour as it shows more detail in the work he has done to achive the the look of the cloths.

Excellent in mono, and the shadow implies a seat which isn't there. Very good visual conundrum.

These invisible seats are fascinating aren't they?
I am not saying the shadow should be removed but why would it no longer be seen as candid? I am intrigued.

Hi Diane, if I removed it it would no longer be an as originally seen by me candid.

Oh I see............................. Thankyou![]()
Great capture Ken and for once I like both versions, the shadow details are excellent.

Nice shot Ken, gets the mind going and that's a good thing, Mono for me, it's great just as it is.

I love the illusion here, and it's the colour version for me.
The colour version just edges it for me Ken, the streetlamp on his back in the shadow makes him look like the Hunchback of Notre Dame or erstwhile England footballer Peter Beardsley!![]()
