Blue Shadows

On a bright sunny day, these indigo fingers of palm shadows reflect the blue sky onto pavement made of seashells.

For your weekend entertainment I have selected a few photography links for you to enjoy...

See a collection of fantastic street photography by a man in New York studying for his Ph.D in psychology.

Check-out this ironic take on some of the most famous photographers of our time.

Lastly, what do people do when they are bored? They invent wacky sports.

    A simple fact and such a good result! The "fingers" look good in this composition. Thanks for the links too. Have a great weekend, Doug!

    Wow, way to see the blue hues in this shot Doug--nicely done! I love each of these links too. The 10 iconic photographers to ignore was an unexpected but delightful perspective.
