The shadows are always disturbing for those who d'not know how to tame them.

This works exceptionally well - couldn't make up my mind whether I preferred the shadows or the reflections, and then decided I like them both equally :) Super photo.

Taking advantage of the subjects regardless of whether it's the right time of the day for photography or not. Tkinking always of photography. Guessing others realities. Inspiring.

Awesome composition. The shadows are very dreamy and then the addition of the one person grounds the image back to reality. Very effective.

I love shadows on wall, especially plant shadows. It sort of take on a reality of its own, like this tree growing out of a dark corner and stretched to the limit. Nice shot.
