Shadow lamp, northern New Mexico
 


January sun
leaking through a shadow lamp—
beggar knows the way

Shadow lamp outshines the winter sun.

    Love the sharp contrast & esp the garland-on-the-post effect. Great stuff, teacherman.

    It looks like the shadow of some sort of strange cactus. 🙂

    Lovely view! The strong Sonoran winter sun feels warm and the classic lantern at Christmas is a nice touch as we head toward the Twelfth Night of Christmas…

    Extraordinary clarity in this ‘designer’ shadow shape. Gorgeous light too.

    Assume there is some decoration on the post. Makes the shadow look creative. Happy 2015

    even desert sun
    pales in presence of the lamp
    on shadowed wall…

    Happy new year.
