Light, Shadows & Glass...





Whilst looking through the photographs I took at the YSP for the previous post, I came across these three which show wonderfully the effects light creates when forming shadows. I love that there are so many shapes made - from the art on the glass balcony edge, the art hanging from the ceiling and the shadows of the shutters on the windows opposite. I especially like the bold straight edges made by the shutters and how they echo the architecture - and in contrast to the twisting smoke like curls of the hanging art. Although all this is obviously unintentional (I think), it really does show the possibilities that there are for playing around with light and shadows. Rather like the shadow of the branch on the area of frosted glass, a layer on top of the glass window - could play around with this idea myself? ...
