Without black, no color has any depth.
But if you mix black with everything,
suddenly there's shadow - no, not just shadow,
but fullness.
You've got to be willing to mix
black into your palette
if you want to create something that's real.

I was goinng to say "worth every penny" ..... but I guess I should amend that to "worth every cent"!!
I do love you shadow shot for the day, Robin, and the quote is perfect! Sorry about the $16!! Why do we always learn about charges after we've broken the rules??? Enjoy your weekend!!
LOVE this! It makes me smile.
OH OH! It's a neat shot...but $16? Yhanks for the warning. I'll be more careful...until I forget. ;))
Actually, I see lots of exclamation marks that are formed by shadow. Perhaps the punctuation marks are fitting as you may have exclaimed when you were given the $16 bill...great picture at any cost!
a lovely shadowy pattern...
Love the idea of needing to mix black in any palette! Beautiful words! Shocked about the charge for photos! But your photo could easily pass as a mandala of beautiful shadow shapes!
I can imagine fairies tripping lightly around this shadowy mini-maze!
I always think there is something 'wrong' with the concept of charging people to take photos (other than the contractual/commerce kind of settings). It's as if they is an attitude that one can 'own' what others see.
Loved (also) the glass of chilled wine and sunset backdrop. Perfection!
Oh, that's really wonderful! You got your money's worth :)
That's quite a lot of from one tour...but you got great pictures.
Black, we need it. Especially to belly area :)
Happy Sunday!
Loved your photos and quotes in the above posts!
Wonderful shadow shot! Love that quote about shadows - so true.
