Monochrome Weekend


I'm posting two photos this week.
Both are the same subject - the sun shining through my drinking glass which was standing on a rough table.

This one was taken from above, showing the full length of the shadow.

This one was after I closed the vertical blinds to shade the room a bit, and I took it from the other side of the table.

I like them both.

Aileni runs this theme, and many great entries can be found through the Monochrome Weekend page.

Wow! Lovely capture of the sunrays and it´s reflections.
My post is from the policemuseum in Stockholm. A built up crime scene for the visitors to take part in an investigation. Actually really interesting.

I THINK I'll go for No. 2- it had a certain, appealing softness (but it was a tough decision...)

It is as though there is some sort of primordal worm growing from the bottom of your glass. Good eye to see the possibility in the ordinary.

I turned out so beautiful! Water reflections are so sweet. Once again you found something simple and made it special.

Kisses with love from us.

Only a artist have eyes to see a good theme like this.
Beautiful.
About my post you are right.
Yes, it is a photogram.
But I put the feather into the amplifier.
You can use the Google Tradutor.
It works very well.
