Shadows and light

Dotty at Media-TIC – Carrer Sancho d’Àvila

Shadows and light and the effects they have on their surroundings fascinate me, and I generally look around me for their projections. As today is Halloween, I thought it appropriate to share a few new ones with you that I found recently.

Shedding light on the neighbors – Carrer Sancho d’Àvila

I discovered them all at the 22@ district, among the various office buildings (and a certain museum) and are pretty interesting. If only for their size. Notice how on the two buildings below there are both shadows and lights projected? It’s as if the two are communicating with each other using a non-verbal method…

There and gone…

Palm fronds – Port Vell

I am always fascinated by the shapes that shadows project onto the ground (or wall, as the case may be) for with the passing of clouds or the rotation of the earth, they can be there and gone before you know it, yet while they are there they can be so very beautiful. I have been spotting some nice ones to share with you, so here goes…

Acacias – Carrer Peu de la Creu

Shadow play

Like lace (Carrer Doctor Dou)

I am away for a long weekend, (this blog post was actually prepared before I left) so playing with the idea of being here yet not really being here, I thought it might be fun to do a post on shadows.
