    This months photo topic is Shadows or Silhouettes.

    Happy shooting!

    Again, the rules are simple:
    • Should be be using some canon gear , this is a canon forum after all.
    • Shot with the assignment in mind, go out and shoot something new don't dig up something from the archives.
    • and most importantly have fun.

    Very nice images
    Very nice images Caladina. I like the first one the most and is that a bat on the right hand side or a bird.

    yes craig, the first image is made up of three images, the main sky and foreground was taken an hour or two after the two at the bottom,
    i included the two at the bottom so you could see where the bat and crow came from
    i tinted the skies in photo shop of the two below to match the main image before i cut and paste them for less work after the paste.

    Funny you said that as that was the first thing that come to mind, at that age I was more interested in Fishing and Soccer. I was late getting into photography say about 1979. and using a old Zenit, This must have been the worst camera ever, a little bump and the film door would come open and expose the film.
