We have another theme and this week Dawn from The Day After has chosen Shadows and Silhouettes. If you want to find out more about this then please take a look at her post.
It is an interesting challenge and one I really had to think about, like many of the others. Then I had to go through folder after folder trying to find both of those. It seems I have far more silhouettes than shadows. Apparently, I don’t really photograph shadows much, or if I have I can’t remember them.
I did know that I had quite a few images that I could make into silhouettes. I hope these all work.
Now I couldn’t help myself, but I wanted more shadows so I thought, hey why don’t I do my own? So you know it, I played with some AI in Photoshop.
Maybe not exactly what I was hoping for, but not bad. I am happy with them for what they are. I know they aren’t real images or photos.
So I would like to thank Dawn for being our host this week and would like you to go and visit her post on this as well. If you decide to join us then you can link to me, but it is more important that you put a link to Dawn’s post. Her blog is at the start of this post.

Lovely photos. Some images just present their beauty best in black and white.
Thank you, I agree absolutely.
Wow from me too! Love the header shot Leanne …
Thank you so much Julie, I think the header is a popular one.

I love your trees, Leanne. Awesome photos.
That’s great, thank you Sofia.
The shadows and silhouettes of the trees are just magnificent.

Thank you so much Teresa.
Your experiences with this challenge echo my own – the hunt through lots of folders, the discovery of more silhouettes than shadows! But your hunt has been very productive – I especially like that silhouetted truck you’ve chosen as your header!
I’m kind of glad I wasn’t the only one Sarah. Thank you, I managed to find some. The header shot seems to be a popular one. Thank you.
Great shots! The truck one is my favorite!
Thank you Sharon, my favourite too.
Rural scenes make for good silhouettes. I like the car, the tanks, the lighthouse and the city skylines
Here’s mine this week

Nailed it!! Love the simplicity of the monochrome silhouettes
Thank you Bernie, I like that too.
The first image of the tree shadow is breathtaking!
Thank you, I remember that one really well.
hello leanne,

best regards robert
Glad you like the theme, Dawn picked well. Thank you Robert.
These shadows and silhouettes are mesmerizingly wonderful, Leanne. Very lovely 🙂
Thank you Hammad.
Cool image ^^;
Thank you.
This is a GREAT challenge. Knee-deep as I am at the moment in grandchildren, it’s very likely I shan’t respond now. Maybe I’ll try to do so later, even though it’ll be the wrong time. I particularly like your tree images.
Yeah, Dawn picked a good one. That’s okay, if you are busy then don’t worry too much about, enjoy your time with your grandchildren. Thank you Margaret.
These are all pretty and interesting, but I love the header photo best, Leanne. What a great capture!
Thank you Lois, yeah, I love that one too, it was a great shot.
The first photo of the truck is amazing! I will never use AI…
Thank you John, I thought it would be good for this. You don’t have to use AI John, I still get a kick out of what you can do with it.
Great silhouettes and creative shadows Leanne!
Thank you so much Anne.
WOW! You out did yourself.
Thank you.
