"In the dark blue forest,
where aspens tremble
and leaves fall from sorcerers' oaks."
These are the words from a song about brave hares who mowed grass in a clearing at midnight. There are still such words:
"Someone's shadows are rising at the filthy swamps"
That's about the shadows in the forest today we'll talk.
If you go into the forest hoping to hunt for shadows...you will see a lot of shadows. Perhaps it will be one solid shadow and small flashes of light. Yes, this also happens especially in the old spruce forest.
In general, on a sunny day, light and shadows in the forest make up a fairly uniform network that does not have a definite shape. Trunks, branches give the intersection of lines, which looks like "porridge" in the photo.
I tried to find a way out of the situation using macro photography. A separate small shadow in the frame may well have a certain shape. It was early in the morning and it helped me in my hunt.
It turned out something like an intimate part of the forest. Usually, in macro mode, mushrooms, insects, and every little thing are removed in the forest. I haven't seen macro shadows yet. Well, maybe this is the first time. Or maybe I'm wrong. In any case, I personally do it for the first time.
I wasn't just looking for a shadow on the ground. In the morning there is a solid shadow on the ground. I was interested in the shadows on the leaves first of all. Morning light and shadow on the screen of a green leaf, it's funny.
Join the fun shadow hunt from
