Same September 8

Here is the second installment for my Same September sensation- which I chose to be sight. I was at the church this afternoon and the pattern of shadows cast by the pews on the carpeted floor caught my attention.
Nice shadows you captured

i think i am alert today. i literally and figuratively thinking on my feet as i cannot sit down for an extended period of time. i bent down to pick up something and i must've pulled a muscle and now i am like a robot when i move. the lines here compliment the lines from last saturday's. very clever. nice colours, too!

@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!
@summerfield Thanks Vikki- that was a pleasant surprise for me as I was not really trying to match last week's post. Worked out in my favor. Please take care of yourself!!

The shadows make them look like stairs! Interesting! Nice carpet too for the kneeling!
September 9th, 2012  
Wow, the way the shadows fall creates a depth that almost resembles stairs. Very good find.

Great shadows! I thought it was stairs at first.

I had to read your caption twice! I really thought I was looking at stairs! It really places tricks with your eyes!
September 9th, 2012  
Great light! Like others, I thought it was stairs, too.

Thank you Brian, Elizabeth, Joyce, Tasha and Vickie! I hadn't really paid much attention to that illusion when I took the shot- but it really jumped out at me when I uploaded the picture. I think it's the tilt that does it.

Very interesting shadow effect. I had to enlarge and really look close to decide that it was shadows and not stairs. Very cool. Beautiful colors.
September 9th, 2012  
Love the light! beautiful composition!
September 9th, 2012  
I like the angle of the shot, lovely colour.
September 9th, 2012  
I like the angles and the pattern :) Nice addition to your challenge :)

Looks like a staircase, Ann. Fantastic spotting here. Love this.

I like the angle. Great composition, and light and shadows too!
September 9th, 2012  
Very cool lighting and shadows. Nicely composed.
September 9th, 2012  
What a lovely effect..I thought they were stairs but of course not otherwise the pews wouldn't be all the same hight.. Bruni Bruni I guess you were not thinking straight when you looked at it last night. was too tired to to write another comment at that time.

Your point of view makes this a unique and interesting photo! I like the colors and shadow play also!
September 9th, 2012  
Love how the shadows create all the different tones in the pink.
September 9th, 2012

@henrir @ulpiphotos @salza @alia_801 @kandernob @sangwann @myautofocuslife @denisedaly @bruni @melorac @prttblues @potsbypam @nadaa @la_photographic

I thank you all for such kind comments and views! Churches are wonderful places to find things that delight the eye and this day was no exception! I'm glad you all enjoyed the illusion of the stairs! Thank you one and all.

Lovely colors and shadows.....interesting perspective.

@cimes1 Thank you Carole. I took one straight on too. The illusion was still there but it wasn't as interesting.
September 10th, 2012  
I really like this! Good job!

@sharritta Thank you Sharon!
September 10th, 2012  
I thought this was a set of stairs when I viewed the thumbnail. Great shot for your chosen sensation.
September 10th, 2012  
Lovely light and shadow and perfect camera tilt.

@nicolecampbell @ruthmouch

Thank you Nicole!
Thank you Ruth! I had taken a straight on shot as well (which still had the shadow effect), but this was far more interesting.
September 10th, 2012

Lovely light & shadow, love the colour
