Holiday Shadows
by Helen Betts

Washington, D. C.

This is another house I've been back to three times trying to duplicate a shot I took with my D200 that I really liked, but to no avail. I am sure the occupants must wonder (as always) what in the world I'm doing shooting all these pictures of their front yard!

Something about this just seems so friendly. Lovely light. --Melanie

Helen, you've got some beautiful architecture in your neighborhood! Beautiful, very warm capture, the shadows complete the picture nicely!

Nice usage of shadows. I think it a great time with the walls of the monuments. They make nice shadows also.

I like the dappled sunlight here, Helen, and the splashes of color really make the scene festive.

Very pretty image - I love the light shadows from the branches on the walls of the house! I like those two ligths with the holiday wreaths under them, also.
