Title: Curvy Silhouette Tags: Marble, Art, Mexico

Comments: This photograph meets the requirements for this assignment because the light causes the shadow of the object to appear on the wall. I think that the rich red color in the background causes the shadow to show up very clearly on the wall. I played around with the lighting using a dimmer to determine which shot would come out better. The shadow image came out a bit more clearly when I used more lighting. I have learned that successful shadow photography can result from the bold shape of an object and this will cause lines, curves, and patterns to appear in the shadow. When shooting shadows, the key is to choose objects or subjects that have simple yet strong forms that are surrounded by the brightness of light.
