Shadow Caravan .. by George Steinmetz @ Natl. Geographic

Apparently this made the email rounds .. if you haven't seen it before ... Look closely, the camels are the little white lines in the picture. The black you see is just the shadows!

Urban Legends @ snopes.com found it to be good .. and throws in a few links for your perusal

the cordial discussions @ digg.com .. apparently everybody assumed it was photoshopped




hang with me and my shadow and pass around the hookah

You might want to take a look at that link. Looks like you are linking to a picture that doesn't want to be linked to.

Thanks for posting that Keith. I find it so amazing that the shadows have such depth and definition. I did receive it as an email and checked it out @ snopes.com as well. Very 'art & photography worthy'. Maybe some day when I grow up.............................................oh well, one can wish, right?

That’s an amazing photo, it reminds me of Eschers work because of the optical deception. It was a terrific find Keith.

After looking at your icon Keith I’m not sure it was your ankle those chihuahuas were chewing on.

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important. Ruth Ross
