Challenge: Shadows (Classic Editing)
Camera: Olympus C-3000Z
Location: Montgomery, AL
Date: Jun 12, 2002
Aperture: 1:2:8
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/4 sec.
Date Uploaded: Jun 12, 2002

Taken in my dining room with the aid of a floor lamp. I took the photo in black and white without a flash. The photo may not be as sharp as most would like, but I was going for the look of the old tv show this is based on.

My husband is the model and no he doesn't look much like this shadow. You can do a lot with the right angle, hands in front of the belly and a good slumped posture.

If I get some laughs out of this it will be well worth the effort.

You get an extra point for making me laugh!

Great idea! I wish the shadow was a little less fuzzy.

Cool hat :)

Very funny, I wish the shadow was more crisp though... try getting closer to the wall?

Very funny idea. Actually I'm tired of seeing "people shadows", but you get a few extra points for humour. The photo also does a good job of reminding me of the original Hitchcock shadow....

Too blurry for me.

hi Bubba, great idea

Good one !! The shadow edges need help. A little more contrast is needed.

Too funny! Great concept! I would have liked to see a little better definintion of the shadow, but then again.......its a shadow.......Overall a 7.

I don't think Hitchcock was quite as lumpy as Bubba looks in this one. Bubba is also a bit fuzzy, but good effort.

OK

This shot certainly qualifies for the shadow competition. Placement of it in the photo is ok, too. However, I'm not very excited looking at the shot, sorry.

Love your title, but why not flop the image to match the most commonly seen profile?
06/17/2002 01:34:00 PM
nice and blurry

ROFL! Great composition, and funny, too!
