Shadow Hunters Community Contest SMASh - Round 371
After a little over a week of cloudy skies and showers during the early morning or early morning hours, today finally dawned clear and quite sunny.
As I headed to the kitchen to brew a hot cup of coffee to wake up my body, I came across this shadow of the balcony railings and me at the front door of the apartment where I live.
Probably in other conditions I would not have been surprised, however, the balcony and windows of the apartment are south facing, so this small section of the apartment rarely or almost never has the illumination of the sun at any time of the year, either in the morning or in the evening, so I found the origin of the light source quite curious.
As I looked out on the balcony I noticed a very intense reflection, as if it were a lighthouse or a flash, on the windows of a building located on the other side of the avenue, about 100 meters away (about 109 yards) that impacted directly on my building creating this unusual shadow on the door.
As I have described in previous posts, I usually make use of the editing tools offered in their free versions by the applications Picsart and Snapseed, with the aim of improving or highlighting some element of my images.
Luego de poco más de una semana con cielos nublados y lluvias durante la madrugada o en las primeras horas del día, hoy finalmente amaneció despejado y bastante soleado.
Mientras me dirigía a la cocina para preparar una taza de café caliente para despertar mi cuerpo, me encontré con esta sombra de las rejas del balcón y de mí en la puerta de entrada del apartamento donde vivo.
Probablemente en otras condiciones no me hubiese sorprendido, sin embargo, el balcón y las ventanas del apartamento están orientadas al sur, por lo que esta pequeña sección del apartamento rara vez o casi nunca cuenta con la iluminación del sol en ningún momento del año, bien sea en la mañana o en la tarde, por lo que me pareció bastante curioso el origen de la fuente de luz.
Al asomarme al balcón observé un reflejo muy intenso, como si se tratase de un faro o de un flash, en las ventanas de una edificación ubicada al otro lado de la avenida, a unos 100 metros (alrededor de 109 yardas) que impactaba directamente sobre mi edificio creando esta sombra inusual sobre la puerta.
Como he descrito en posts anteriores, usualmente hago uso de las herramientas de edición que ofrecen en sus versiones gratuitas las aplicaciones Picsart y Snapseed, con el objetivo de mejorar o destacar algún elemento de mis imágenes.
All the Photos are of my Authorship, as well as the Edition of the same ones.
