Windows and a shadow
Ehpem and I continue our co-posting experiment, and it’s his day to write the post. Let’s see what’s he has to say…
The shadow in the first photo is Melinda’s and was cast while she was taking the photo below at Jordan River. Jordan River is a very small place beside the road from Victoria to Port Renfrew on the south west edge of Vancouver Island.
Beside the highway are some old buildings from a logging operation that was based here. I have photographed these buildings before and knew that Melinda would like them too. We poked around more than I had done before, and found a derelict house that was open, and you will see photos from inside it tomorrow.
I don’t know if the builder was anticipating flooding but foundations rising to the window sills seems a bit excessive. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. After all they provide nice grain for Melinda’s shadow.
Photos up next:

Wow, broken glass v. shadow – that’s a tough call. And two very different pictures.

Donna – this is the best example so far how we saw some things very differently!

I was in a mood for portraits. A better pair might have been with one I posted a week or so ago which is my self in a shard of glass in one of these windows.
I photographed this building last year and perhaps I was looking for something different than I did then. I think some of those pictures are more like Melinda’s but need to go back for another look.

Here’s another idea (since we are so good at coming up with them): we can let EVERYONE have access to our images, and they pick the pairs…!
Or, you know, not.

That is an interesting idea! Like drawing lines between columns of things on an exam. I bet we could put up say 10 images each and then structure a poll so that one could vote on a match for each photo. The results could be very interesting.

It actually may be a better idea than I first thought, because the way you outlined it sounds like it would be fun for our readers. Let’s recover from this project, though, first!

I agree. And it would be a big post. One Day Many Images.

It’s already (temporarily) One Day |Two (or three) Images. Another name change wouldn’t hurt.

These two photos couldn’t be farther apart from each other yet they each compliments the other. But now you have to change the name to “One Day Two Images.

I know – I didn’t think it through AT ALL.

Thanks Ken. We do look at things pretty differently. I had a serious itch to break out the macro lense a few times but never did. That would have been really different.
