Insights in shadow



Follow the shadows in MARY THEODOROPOULOU's photos and you'll be in for a special treat! Shadows play prominent and unusual roles in her skyscapes.

Modestly,  she claims amateur status as she wanders near Kalamáki, Attiki, Greece. Make no mistake, however, her shots are professional.

Her Flickr photostream demonstrates her use of shadow to emphasize, frame and expand the dimensions of her work, particularly her landscapes:


YouTube reveals yet more of Mary Theodoropoulou's talent. I spent just 3 minutes watching one of her videos and got inspirations for creating my own someday:

John Suler: Photographic Psychology

John Suler's Flickr Albums page (partial view) John Suler's perceptions are well worth your time considering. He is both observing and participating in the world of cyber photography. "It's a composition, stupid!" He wrote (perhaps with your help if you commented) a book that strives to take full advantage of social media. On Flickr John describes the project: "My whole photostream is an ongoing meditation on photographic psychology: how we create, share, and react to images, especially concerning digital photography and online photosharing, like here in flickr.

Here, the smooth, ice-covered rocks reflect the orderly altocumulus clouds above in contour, tone and pattern. Phil's profile page [ https://phil-koch.pixels.com/ ] has many more examples of his creations, and a few surprises mixed in there, too. Phil says: "I created the series of Horizons in 2010 as photographic journey through the landscapes of Wisconsin. I rarely shoot in the same location as the sun rises and find the meadows that most just drive by without a second thought as the best place to wait and watch."
