CONTEST "Photo hunt!": Week #12 - Such different shadows!
The Family's Shadow
The shadow of a family
Besides the fact that I had been afraid of shadows, a condition now known as sciophobia. the shadow latter became an object of interest and I watched a number of shadow plays which has affected my choice of shadow in this contest.
The contest gave us the liberty to choose any object for our shadow. Because the contest is organised by steemit-family, I decided to use a family.
I cut out a family made up of a father, a mother and a Child. To use in casting a shadow as if it was a shadow play.

My setup
I used an IPhone as my light source, an A4 paper as my backdrop, a stencil of the family between the light source and the paper. Everything was placed on my laptop which only helped to hold the paper and the stencil.
The setup
settings and ratio
To get an image formed on the backdrop it is important to vary the distance between the stencil and the backdrop and the distance between the light source atand the stencil. The size of the image is directly proportional to the distance created between the objects.
