In this particular angle, the time seems to be around mid-afternoon, basing from the angle of the shadows. But if you invert the pictures, the time of day seems to be around dusk, because of the long shadows... Ingenious!!! This is a brilliant shot.....

What an awesome shot! It's really trippy how the angle and the colours combined mean that it's hard to tell where the people end and their shadows begin

Thas was my intention, I'm glad I made it clear
Thank you!

The Killers? Such a great band, and the name goes so well with this shot!

Actually Shadowplay is a song from Joy Division, the Killers only did a cover version
But I'm glad you enjoyed this shot. Thanks for stopping by!

Oh, gosh. This messes with my head a bit. Like an optical illusion of sorts.
Great shot, though

in the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more
as the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor--
i've been wanting to find the perfect picture to match that song. this takes it!
somehow my brain is telling me that this picture's been mirrored because of that odd angle--i've never been this glad from getting a migraine before. xD
amazing shot. perfect angle, perfect set-up!

The photo was not mirrored, altought it does certainly look that way.
Thank you!

I LOVE YOUR SIGGY! Though, I am starting to lose hope in Heroes. But I will always LOVE Syler.

L-lose hope? How come? o:
There are always so many plot twists to keep you on the edge of your seat!
Well, I might be able to relate; all those plot twists are disappointing me. xD
and YES, ANOTHER SYLAR FAN!

The basic plot is really good and it has a lot of potential. BUT...the writers aren't really keeping to the story. Like, whatever happened to Nathan's family? He's now in this obscure relationship with Tracy? Ugh. It frustrates me. But I like the show in general. If only the actors were talented.

I've missed the past couple of episodes, but yeah, I really hate how the story's been going lately. I mean, whatever happened to Micah? He was my favourite character, but he's only had one appearance so far--during his mom's funeral. I expected him to have a bigger role, especially since he meets a woman who looks exactly like his dead mother. You'd think something would have to happen there. D:

You're so right. Ugh. Do you watch LOST?

my gosh! this is a photo? what manipulations did you do?

Only a minor contrast and color correction, other than that the photo pretty much already looked the same coming from the camera. Thank you!
