Uninterrupted Shadow by taffy

Uninterrupted Shadow

I've started doing a neighborhood walk every few days for about a mile. Vast improvement in my hip and opportunities for photographs unique to this time. I'd never even noticed the shadows cast by the elevated train tracks because they are usually covered by cars.
Thanks for all the positive comments on the Blue Angels images!
Cool shadows!

Isn't it strange how something so common can catch your eye in situations like these?

This is beautiful. I love seeing your city shots. So different from where I live. Glad walking helps your hip!

I love a good shadows shot and this is a great example. Being an optimist, I try to find something positive in any situation, and covid has given us this unique opportunity to see our familiar areas with fresh eyes.

Great to hear your hip has improved to that degree Taffy. And so good you can get a photographic record of these extraordinary times in a city like Chicago, unprecedented opportunities for people who can get out there.

I love this! As an avid fan of the hospital drama ER all those years ago, this sight of walking under the El is so iconic to me too. Absolutely love the shadow patterns here. Also delighted to hear your hip is so much better now. Yay!

Great shadows. You're certainly getting some amazing shots of your almost empty city.

Happy to know your hip is going better. I think I know this place - and I think the shadows cast by the train tracks were the first thing I noticed there!

Wonderful leading lines and very effective in black and white.

Although the circumstances are unusual it really is a plus to be able to take shots like this while the cars are off the road. Love the pattern the El makes on the street- it's like the white line painters just went ballistic!
May 16th, 2020  
Wonderful ;)
May 16th, 2020  
So well done. Glad you are feeling better.
