Shadows & Silhouettes

The shadows that light paints on surfaces surprise and amuse me, often more than the object itself. I like the
anonymity and universality of silhouettes, backlit subjects with recognizable shapes.

The Shadow Knows
Many of my images illustrate Bible verses. "They are like a breath; their days are like a fleeting shadow."
- Psalms 144:4 (NIV)
A pink-clad pedestrian contemplates his distorted shadow upon a rosy wall. With a nod to Rene Descartes, "He casts a shadow; therefore, he is."
