Hi Patricia– Ha, going to steal that word. Thanks so much for your appreciation.
This is one of the best posts on photography I’ve had the privilege of viewing. Sums up all the classes I’ve taken. Had to share on my Facebook page 🙂 Also permanently linked it in my browser to remind me from time to time.
Frank- What a kind comment- thank you very much. I’m happy these images spoke to you. 😊
This time around I’ve got two favorites: “clinker brick” and “boardwalk and fog.” Are these both San Francisco shots?
Atreyee- Clinker brick is on Russian Hill in SF and Boardwalk is in South Carolina. Glad you enjoyed these- thanks!
Bonita serie, un saludo
Gracias, Pepe. 😊
Fabulous shots!! Loving the clinker brick….real FEEL GOOD shots…makes for a happy day!!😘
Great capture Jane…I can imagine the warmth of the sun on my skin when Iook at this. Hopefully sun will soon replace the rainy Vancouver weather! Thanks for brightening my day.
Thank you, Deb and I’m glad I brought some warmth to your day!
Beautiful, Jane! 🙂
Thanks so much, Javier!
The clinker brick is amazing Jane! So many details that you don’t notice at first glance, but having the image captured allows you to go back and find what you otherwise would have missed!
Jane you see things that others would walk by – the mood and atmosphere of each photograph is so elegant and soul-filling. You are a master of the lens, what a treat to see.
Mary, You are so thoughtful. Thank you for your very kind response to my post.
Very good pictures, my favorites are the first 2 🙂
HI Ellen- I’m so glad you enjoyed them– thanks so much.
Great story in shadows. Especially liked all the ones in color. Not sure why.
Thanks, Jane. It is interesting to me what calls out in a image to the viewer. Happy you like these.
A lovely set 😄
Thank you, Alastair. I’m sure you find the light on your beautiful walks.
Brilliant captures of light! I haven’t had much Internet lately so glad to catch this post.
Thanks so much, Sherry. Reminded me how important good light is. Glad you enjoyed.

Lovely set….I especially like the lines and shapes of Window Light and the Early Morning tree shadows
Thanks so much, Sue. I love shadow play.
As do I!
Awesome set! I love all of them! The way you captured all the different lights is amazing.
Thanks, Jürgen. Always a fun challenge to find the light. Glad you like these.

Hi June- Thanks! Glad you liked this one– appreciate it.

Wow amazing !
Hi Kenny- Happy you enjoyed this series- thank you.
Great shots Jane, the 1st one is just magical – perfect lighting.
Hi Mark- I was walking in SF a couple of days ago and that late afternoon sun was amazing. Then I saw the shadows of the brick and the pedestrian. Very cool. Glad you like it- thank you.
Loved your take on the theme this week Jane – what is more ephemeral than light? Window light would be my choice for fav – turning the otherwise mundane into lovely art.
Hi T- Thanks so much. I love window light/shadows and shot that a few weeks ago. So glad you like it. 🙂
Loved Boardwalk and Fog.
Thanks, Sharon. I have a series of them… this was a magical morning.
