mirrored shadows

The beauty of night photography is that there are multiple light sources, unlike our solitary Sun. This image demonstrates that fact with the two mirrored shadows on either side of this playground hobby horse.

The night sky provides a less distracting background and keeps our attention squarely where I want it to be… the horse and it’s shadows. Overall the image has a touch of surrealism to it by affixing these two shadows to the ground – two shadows cast from the same object – where there should only be one.

Rod Serling might have something to add to this…
