AHA! I needed to find that image I mentioned in my earlier post.

Here it is (by wavelength).

This was one of my faves during the challenge. Instead of green, I'm seeing blue! What a departure from the expected. The little guy's silhouette, eventhough we've seen a dozen times, never seems to get old ;) Great find Jimmy!

Hey! I've seen this guy somewhere else before... ;^) No, really! Now I'll have to find it - a very similar shot. Nonetheless, I like this. Looks like the voters did also. You did a nice job in laying out the composition, using the dark area lower right to create a ROT type comp.

Description: Creatively capture a shadow
Advanced Edit
Moonwalker
Fit: Clearly meets the challenge 1
But is it a shadow or a silhouette?
Aesthetics: OK composition 1
Feels a little busy for me
Technical: Technically well executed 2

Wow: Has some impact 1
Not sure that this is a shadow so the lower score - sorry
Total Score = 5

Hehehe...I have seen a few like this. Would that happen to be that toy one again...if so...good thinking.

I may be wrong, but this image seems to depict a silhouette... not a shadow. Your score may suffer due to this. Best of luck.

This is great. Nice catch! Would look really awesome if you had a bit more pic to include to the left and bottom. However I really like this.

A very effective use of shadow.

I love the blue color and the lizard, but he is a silhouette, not a shadow.

Very cute, I love geckos. I like the blues of this shot.

Wow this jumps right off of the thumbnails (no pun intended)

Love the blue - what a great title.
