Not a reflection but your shadow : Entry for the Shadow Contest/SMASh Round 387

@oadissin · 2025-08-18 11:13 · Shadow Hunters

Greetings,

How are you doing, my friend shadow hunter?

It has been a good season of outdoor activities. The summer resting hours were disturbed with the rain, but I managed to make the most out of the first part of the vacation.

When I move out to the beach, I found the sun hitting the ground with less heat near the Ocean waves.

It is around the area the waves hit the ground that I love to walk and photo capture the best moment on the brown sand.

It was cool to walk so close to the waves after two weeks of limitation to avoid water to enter my electrical devices.

The first photo above is my entry in the contest. I appreciate this opportunity allowing the publication of Shadows.

You will certainly appreciate the combination of elements sun water and wind on this spot if you ever find in a similar location.

I did not dare to keep my camera out last times the waves came so close to the places I stood off at the beach.

The shadow forming on the with foam was super cool to capture the second time I saw the dark figure on this white background.

It was only possible to capture these photos because of the sunlights. The shining light was half powerful as usual due to the clouds covering the large part of the sky. I was lucky to get this rare moment of light after weeks of dark clouds, causing the capture of shadow a serious challenge.

It is risky to find yourself in this situation, especially if you have sensitive equipment on you. I will not recommend anyone to go to this extreme to capture a photo, unless you got the proper protection or the right training.

It is a nice feeling I got when I placed these series of photos in my folder for publication in the shadow community.

I knew that it will be a nice surprise to all the member active in this contest and perhaps an inspirational article to motivate my fellow hunters to take action.

If you had to make a selection base on the collection of photos in this article which one will you choose as your favorite?
