Patti’s Lens-Artist’s challenge reminds us of how light and shadow work together in our photos.
I love the early morning at my nearby lake. I think this little duckling is just perfect for this challenge. The early sun highlights his soft feathers. I also love how the water rings and the light sparkles around him.
This slideshow below shows how different edits can change the effects of lights and shadows:
Lights and shadows can really change the mood of a photo. Thank you for the challenge, Patti!

The backlighting on the duckling really shows off his fluffiness! And I love your edits on that monochrome flower shot, especially the second and third (can’t choose between those two!)
