I was quite pleased to see the outcome of this photo where I find my shadow embedded in there. Actually it is the sun that played this tricky role. I doubt if I will ever be able to reproduce this.

You can reproduce it every day at the same time, when the sun shines.

@LadyDuck The sun will not be seen in the same place, unfortunately.

The sun is never in the same place. It changes.

It is a pretty cool picture and although you might be able to come close, you probably never could reproduce it exactly as it was originally.

Usually shadows are photo destroyers. But this one turned out great! Was it intentional (composed that way)?

Did you not learn about the sun while at school. It changes positions (lol) And if there are clouds that is a different story.
