Penumbras | Shadow Hunters Contest Round 370 [ENG/ESP]

Hello friends, hello shadow hunters, I hope you're having a wonderful day. I couldn't miss the opportunity to share these photos with you. I hope you like them.

Hola amigos, hola cazadores de sombras, espero que estén teniendo un lindo día. No podía dejar pasar la oportunidad de compartir con ustedes estas fotos. Espero que les guste.

Shadow: Darkness, absence of light, more or less complete. Light: A physical agent that makes objects visible. Penumbra: A faint shadow between light and darkness, which does not let us perceive where one begins or the other ends.

Sombra: Oscuridad, falta de luz, más o menos completa. Luz: Agente físico que hace visibles los objetos. Penumbra: Sombra débil entre la luz y la oscuridad, que no deja percibir dónde empieza la una o acaba la otra.

This is my entry for the contest

The small angelic statue, worn down by time, still maintains its serene expression. Under low lighting, the flash creates shadows that highlight its hair. Darkness and light shape the figure, making it appear ethereal. Without a doubt, every shadow has its own story, even if it is told in silence. The penumbras invite us to investigate and discover what is hidden in their silhouettes.

La pequeña estatua angelical, destruida por el tiempo, sigue manteniendo su expresión serena. Bajo la poca iluminación, el flash dibuja sombras que detallan su cabello. Oscuridad y luz moldean la figura y la hacen ver etérea. Sin dudas, cada sombra tiene su propia historia, aunque la cuente en silencio. Las penumbras nos invitan a investigar y descubrir qué se oculta en las siluetas.

This photo is part of a series taken on the same day. Photographing statues has an undeniable charm, especially those found in unconventional places. There is a certain magic in the stillness and serenity of stone. Angels represent the connection between heaven and earth, as well as strength, peace, faith, protection, and beauty, which has led many cultures throughout history to create statues of them.

Esta foto forma parte de varias que fueron tomadas el mismo día. Fotografiar estatuas tiene un encanto especial, sobre todo aquellas que se encuentran en lugares menos convencionales. Hay cierta magia en la quietud y serenidad de las piedras. Los ángeles representan la conexión entre el cielo y la tierra, así como la fuerza, la paz, la fe, la protección y la belleza, lo que ha llevado a muchas culturas a lo largo de la historia a construir estatuas de ellos.

Well, friends, I hope you enjoy the photographs. Sending you my best wishes for success and luck. Until next time!
