Great job on capturing how highlights and shadowing work together to create amazing photography. The light highlights the length and atmosphere of San Francisco where the shadows help pull that feeling together. Thank you for your submission Living in San Francisco before I would love to know where you captured this shot

The light and the shadowing of the dancer body creates and oh so important line for a ballet dancer. They way her hand creates a full circle from foot to shoulder is beautiful The dancer still shows the elongated music tone. Thank you for your entry

Your daughter is a natural. The highlights around her face and hair which help bring out her freckles is amazing. Where the shadows on face and hair eventuate the natural tones of her hair. Beautiful picture thank you for sharing

Capturing the shadows at just the right time is done very well in the photo. Not only does it bring the desert landscape to life, it also tells a story of the person following an already taken path. The red with what I assume is her skin creates a silhouette of her body and the flow of the coverup
