SHADOWS.
I'm fascinated at seeing how shadows bring life and 3D to images in so many ways. Sometimes it's the shadows that are the image, other times they complement or contrast the image. Bold or subtle, soft or hard. People, nature, objects, architecture, if ya got light - ya get to also play with them shadows.
SHADOWS.

So have at it, folks! Share your favorite images from your archives or better yet, if you're so inclined, go out and shoot something new for this week.

As always, be mindful of our customary rules that come into play for the weekly competitions:

· Follow all relevant local laws regarding stay-at-home orders. If you can't go outside, try and take a photo at home or grab one from the archives.

· Do not comment, vote, react or click “like” on images prior to the winners being announced.

· The photographs must be your own work.

· You may only submit one photo per contest.

· This contest runs for one week. If in doubt, check the dates in the title.

· At the end of the week, The Judge will choose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place photo, providing as much feedback as possible.

· If the Judge is unable to complete the selection within 48 hours of the deadline, then last week's 2nd place has to step in. 3rd place takes over should 2nd place be similarly unable to officiate.

· The 1st place Winner will start a new thread with the topic/theme of their choice, and act as the Judge for that contest. (Winner has 48 hours to create a new theme, after that it defers to 2nd place).

· Be sure to update the Contest Master List as soon as you post a new theme.

To get you started, I've borrowed from a cycling group I'm in this image (not mine):

I’ll kick off. 4 friends lost on the mountains still keeping our wits about. This trip left so many memories with me. We are all scattered across the country now and hardly ever get time to see each other.

We went up a Mountain (2200m) up in austrian alps to see the sunrise from the top.
At this point we have been waiting in the shadows for the sun to rise.

I decided to come out of the shadows and into the light to get this in. Late, but still before last call.

Looks like you might have missed it, we'll have to see how generous the judging panel are feeling!
