Shadow Sunday: Little Underbank
Today's shadows are on Little Underbank at Stockport, Cheshire, UK.
Little Underbank is an old street that is now pedestrianised. The shot was taken from a bridge that crosses over the top of this ancient city street.
Like many of my compositions this is a crop of a small section of a much larger original photograph. In this case, I used a very different crop of the same original to create a haiga which you can see on Ink Sweat & Tears.

Little Underbank is a good name. There is an Undercliffe Road in Lewisham and Wyndcliffe just next to where we live but no Underbanks.
ReplyDeleteYour photo reminds me of a sundial somehow.
A marvelous shot as always! Great composition! I, too, like the name, Little Underbank and it is reminiscent of a sundial.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteI love the composition and texture in this photo (and the shadow, of course). Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThey look a bit like the Queen's guard standing at post...not moving a muscle.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shadow - love the stone pavement - Little Underbank looks like a great place to walk around!
ReplyDeleteI really like this detail of your photo. It almost looks black & white. It almost looks like an abstract composition. Very nice.
