A quick look at shadows, the enigmatic feelings of mystery they can sometimes produce.
The featured photo shows the early morning sun, somewhere near here. No mystery perhaps. More a feeling of unknown promise in the day ahead. And below, this quiet photo from Laberint d’Horta in Barcelona reminds me of a morning I spent there discovering , hidden amongst the trees, apparently ancient statuary.
Two urban photos: one from the once gritty underside of Leeds, suggesting its dirty and industrial past, the other from a up-to-the-minute quarter of Barcelona. I like the hard-to-decipher shadows on the textured overhanging roof.
And lastly, another from canal-side Leeds. Someone should write a story about this young woman sitting contemplatively beneath the shadows of the trees.
For Leanne’s Monochrome Madness …
… and for John, the week’s Lens-Artists Challenge host. He’s chosen ‘Shadowed’.
From Pyrenees to Pennines 
Off you go then! I shall expect the story in my Inbox tomorrow xx
The Leeds/Barcelona duo has me a little confused, but I suppose that’s my natural state. I like the shafts of light in the opener. Rays of hope?

You’re allowed to be confused. I did this in a bit of a hurry. It’s simply two urban shots, that’s the only connection. Yes, hopeful is how I see that first shot too. YOU can write the story for the last shot! x
