If we stand in the light, we all cast a shadow. Light can be seen as good and our shadow side as bad according to some folklore or myths. Carl Jung saw the shadow as the primitive or instinctive side of the individual. Sometimes I see interesting pictures that have shadows. My simple fence at the side of the house reflected these shapes in shadow form. Some people can be fearful of life- afraid of his own shadow!
What do you see when you view the picture? Does the shadow create interesting images for you? When light makes a shadow does it change the perspective? If we face the light, can we try and see the shadow that is made? Does it have any meaning or is it just a shadow?
Photography, alone of the arts, seems perfected to serve the desire humans have for a moment ... this very moment ... to stay(Sam Abell).
