If you haven't you have missed a lot of fun and failed to get some grotesque but fascinating pic- tures to add interest to your snap- shot collection. } Shadow pictures are casy to make, too. The main requisite is a good, strong sun in the late afternoon or early morning. Late afternoon, per- haps fifteen or twenty minutes be- fore the sun starts gradually to disappear below the horizon, is pref- erable; for your light is usually stronger at this time and casts deep- er and sharper shadows. The two pictures above are only a couple of examples of the many unusual pictures to be taken Avith the aid of a strong sun, The picture to the right was the result of an alert amateur's "nose for pictures", As he started down the steps of the elevated train platform---with his always ready camera ---says he, "Here is a picture", so hurriedly set the diaphragm at f.11 and-shut- ter speed at 1/25 of a second and- snap--he had a fine shadow picture. As the man at the bottom of the steps was walking away from the camera a shutter speed of 1/25 of a second was fast enough to stop ac- tion and still give the proper ex- posure, Obviously the picture to the left prt was posed but it shows further pos- 4% sibilities for taking unusual sha- dow pictures." An ideal place for ' taking shadow pictures is on light colored ground; the cement side- walk, the street or better yet--on beaches where the light sand accen- tuates the dark body and outline of the shadow. You-can also get unusual shadow pictures by standing so that your shadow is cast on the side of a building or a'house, Here's one thing to remember. If you take pictures with the shadow cast on a light colored surface the exposure should not be as long as that used in taking pictures with the shadows cast on a dark back- ground, In other words you make your exposure for shadow pictures but little longer than you would for an ordinary snapshot with the same lighting conditions. : JOHN VAN GUILDER. »
