The Photographer's Shadow
Hiding one's shadow during a picture is very important when it comes to photography .. however in this case .. the beauty is in the shadow .. the photographer's shadow tells what stance he stood as he took the picture .. the photographer's shadow is a unique style (unintended though)

Good post Nabeel !
We missed you...
Photographer's shadow is so diconcerting. Old photos are too: these people young and now dead for long time.
And our own photos when younger...
In the past it was not so usual to do photos and often the only one was tooken on death bed.

Whenever I see this kind of shadow, I am overwhelmed with curiosity, trying to figure out which hairstyle would cause that particular silhouette.
WOW! i love the pics, interesting link!
i feel curious too :)
shadows are so magical to me
welcome back Nabeel!!
The shadow on that top picture is kinda scary lookin. The photographer has no neck! It's like something out of a really bad horror movie where some swamp thing is going to come and eat the poor kid.
Run away little Billy! Run away!!
That's great Nabeel. I love seeing the shadow of the photographer, wondering "who" it could have been or what they looked like, is an interesting wonder.
Nice blog you have in here. Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your comments.
I hate to see the photographer's shadow in a picture. Spoils the mood of the picture and distracts the viewer from the subject, unless that is the very intention. My 2 cents :)
and oh...i just realized. Old photos mostly have the photographer's shadow in the picture because of the camera and film limitations those days. Photographers always made the subjects stand facing the sun so there is enough light on their face. Also, outdoor pictures taken when sun is right above causes harsh shadows on the face and overexposes part of the picture. This is why most photographers preferred to shoot pictures in the morning or evening when shadows were long. Since the sun was always behind the photographer, his shadow somehow always manages to creep into the pictures. With today's sophisticated cameras and their amazing metering modes, one can forget about overexposures or bright backgrounds. :)
Yea , i think its a hat and it looks like they are English people.
or maybe its not a hat, his hair might me off in every direction.
ho ho ho ! that's a good catch ! well-observed and well-posted
The Shadow gives extra beauty to the Photo:)
Interesting pictures and an interesting approach to analyzing the shadows.
I wrote the above and didn't mean for it to be anonymous.
Curiosity killed the cat...Its a very neat post...Very old pics & probably at that time camera's were not that advanced like zooming options & what not..
Ppl might think its merely attractive seeing this kind of shadow in a photograph but I think it has its own beauty or beauty is inthe eye of beholder :)
Stay Beautiful..!
