For Shadow Shot Sunday over at Hey Harriet's Australian blog some shots of the staircase at home, as I came down yesterday morning.
As the winter sunlight poured through the landing windows above and the glass panelled front doors below, the wooden hand rail and wrought iron balustrade were thrown into stark relief against the stair runner, the pale yellow walls and a framed gravure of Napoleon Bonaparte.
Don't you just love the play of light and shadow. These are lovely shots. I'm fascinated with your stairs!
ReplyDeleteThere is something about those photos of shadows that just tug at my heart, sugar. Yours are especially beautiful with that stairway carpeting. Gorgeous!

Beautiful, Maggie. I'm trying to learn how to use light and shadows to produce more interesting photos. It's fun to study your photos. These are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI like the air of mystery - and your stairway is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh, GORGEOUS. I was in Brussels yesterday, and at one point the sun came out (amazing!) and there were some faboo shadows. Did I have my camera? OF COURSE not...
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting these, Maggie. I love your staircase.
That soft French Winter light is so beautiful against such a wonderful backdrop. Thank you for visiting me too.
ReplyDeleteGreat photographs, it is lovely to see the sun although it is still very cold outside!! You have caught the shadows really well on the stairs. Have a good Sunday, Jackie in UK.
ReplyDeleteLove the slivers of light in each photo highlighting the shapely shadows! Beautiful!

ReplyDeleteI love these everyday, household shadows. They are so beautiful to capture and not take for granted.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job capturing these shadows. I must try to remember to pay more attention to the sun and see if I can grab a few shadow shots.
ReplyDeleteCheers
