Well imagine her complete body shadow coming back to you? Beauty street photo. Close, a nice seeing of the moment, unfortunately you don't win the gold medal! :-( Some times it's but a second or two.. then click! Of course providing another doesn't walk into the scene? However? The important part?..........."you saw the effect and the moment in the first place!" Many wouldn't see it or miss it completely! I bet you wont forget this when you see a similar situation and we'll see a full body shadow next posting! :-) cheers, Dr. ted :-)
