See the shadow but where am I? :)I tried this illusion shot had the camera in my other hand and it wasn't easy to get the camera to stay inside my shadow without me looking. Afterwards, my biggest problem was getting rid of that date stamp that was there in bottom right.But still I like it. Mornings at the right time of the year and time of morning the sun will hit an old oak in the back yard and send shadows dancing on the wall and seeing the shadow got my imagination going. :)

Location
I took this photo in my dining room. I woke early that morning and seen the warm shadows flowing through against the walls and thought it was the perfect opportunity to try some shadow shots.Time
It was early in the morning as the sun was rising and light was coming through the large oak out back of the house. The shadows look so mystical and perfect moments for trying some shadow shots.Lighting
This was all natural light.Equipment
Camera, and myself holding the camera.Which was no easy task.Inspiration
The shadow that the oak tree was casting on the wall I really liked seeing it and it got my imagination going.Editing
No. I did try an remove date stamp at bottom right because it become almost the focal point.In my camera bag
I don't always carry the same camera. I like trying out different types of cameras.Feedback
I get up early, so get up early and look for any shadows that natural light casts on walls or anywhere light casts a shadow. You can use lighting techniques I am sure to get this. I just liked the way the natural light looked. Just use your imagination!
