The first photograph is of a store. Built for a function, but in the moment this is taken, it is not in use, it is a shadow of itself. A copy we find pleasing still, even when not being used for its intended function. Tracing this vein of thought, I think the shadow in the second photograph is the of the chair in the third. And again the shadow is pleasing, maybe even more than the real thing. Or maybe it is actually the light all along.

Thank you for sharing moshood's photograph and work. It is a very interesting counterpoint to the vibrant colourful photograph, Taiwo, by Sierra Nallo in the previous post, though both do have the concern of the boundary between shadow and light at their heart.

Thanks for reading, Ed. I agree with your estimation, and I'm glad to know that both features converge in your thinking. I'm hoping for more instances of convergence.
